Eisley Goes Over the River and Through the Woods


A couple of weeks ago, Texas-based family band Eisley asked their fans for tour name suggestions. “No rules,” said the band. “Think conceptual, literal, seasonal.” The result is a two-month US tour, dubbed the Over The River And Through The Woods Tour. Over the course of the tour, Eisley will play 37 gigs in cities ranging from Lake Charles to New York.

Eisley is on the brink of releasing their third LP. This upcoming album will be the band’s first since it’s split with the Warner/Reprise label earlier this year. See the full list of tour dates down below, and check back soon for more information on the release of their album.

Infantree Premiere New Video

Infantree are a band that seem destined to make a name for themselves. Perhaps just for the fact that there seems to be three one-person-bands in their band.

The band, comprised of: Alex Vojdani (vocals, lyrics, guitar, keys), Matt Kronish (vocals, lyrics, guitar, keys, banjo), Donald Fisher (vocals, lyrics, bass, mandolin, guitar) and Jordan Avesar (drums).

Following their well-received debut album Would Work, the band is premiering its first video off of the album.

You can glimpse “Slaughter House” right here.

Violens Premiere New Video, Announce New Tour Dates

violens

New York group Violens (sic) just premiered their first single off of their upcoming album Amoral.

The song is called “Acid Reign (In Trees Mix)” and the video features Caroline Polacheck of Chairlift directing.

Here’s what she said about the video.

“The R&B version of “Acid Reign” is so deep (the way kids say “deep” in middle school), almost too close and lush for comfort. Jorge is from Miami, so when I heard the song, I imagined a Miami heartbreaker-alter-ego in passionate, solitary mourning.”

You can get a looksee at the new video right here.

If that piques your interest, you can catch the Violens…
