Oberhofer plays at the Breakthru Radio studio


Oberhofer’s performance of their recently released single “Away Frm U” at the Breakthru Radio studio is a tasty little treat for fans to see them live in action, sans a noisy crowd. The single manages to be a really cute piece of music while also having some punk appeal, similar to Matt and Kim’s style. This particular performance showcases all the individual elements of the song with crystal clarity, from cheerful, high pitched xylophone to the harmonizing bass to the speedy drums and everything else in between, including the charming and angst driven vocals.

Oberhofer just wrapped up an American tour but they have a couple shows in March lined up for the South, and if their performance at the Breakthru Radio studios is any indication of what they sound like at a club then fans should be begging for another tour soon.

Infantree’s Freaky New Video

Infantree definitely seems older than their ages would suggest (besides the mis-spelling of their name). Although three-forths of the band is under 21, they are already making a name for themselves musically.

The band has been booked to play in the SXSW ASCAP showcase, taking place March 18th at the Victorian Room in the Driskill Hotel. The band was also invited by Neil Young to perform at his Bridge School Benefit alongside Elvis Costello, Emmylou Harris and Modest Mouse.

The group will be re-releasing their first album, Would Work later this spring. Until then, enjoy this creepy video for the song “Feet of Clay”.

Far East Movement Unveil Short Film Project

With their new short film “Rocketeer L.A. Dreamer,” Far East Movement hope to take fans behind the scenes of their crazy lives. Using downtown L.A. as the backdrop, the short film shows fans the inspiration behind their current single, “Rocketeer,” and the community of dreamers that Far East Movement came up in. For the live music portion of the video, the group used the same set up of old mics and amps they used to rehearse with.
