IndianGiver — Plafond EP

If you were to peruse the “About” section of IndianGiver’s Facebook page, you’ll notice how the instruments attributed to each of the Oklahoma City band’s five members are described with downright flippancy: Dylan Jordan plays “sticks & animal skins,” while Jazzton Rodriguez earns his keep with “shanties & loud noises,” and so on.

Various artists — Never Give Up: Celebrating 10 Years of The Postal Service

Few indie bands have had the impact on current music that The Postal Service has. Even fewer have done so with only one album.

Big Worm — Bench All-Stars

Fans of the comedy classic Friday may recognize the name Big Worm, but the Big Worm behind Bench All-Stars is rooted not in South Central L.A., but on the streets of Oklahoma City.

Code 22 — Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!

The guys of Oklahoma City’s Code 22 seem like a likable group of fellas. Their latest release, Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!, is likable enough as well — so likable that on first listen, I took its clean, acoustic sound and clear, unstressed vocals as an alternative praise-and-worship band.

Eureeka — Polysynthetic Fields

It’s always refreshing to hear music that embraces its own eccentricity, yet presents it in an accessible and meek fashion. Eureeka — the Norman-based duo of Jordan Vargas and Devin Wahl — has tapped into this rarified air on its self-released EP, Polysynthetic Fields.

Spring has sprung!


So here are some videos about it.

By Stephen Carradini April 1st, 2011

So it seems that spring has finally sprung. Here’s a batch of upbeat music videos to watch once the sun has gone down to remind yourself of how awesome the next day of warm goodness is going to be.



Katie Costello’s “Cassette Tape” is a sunshiny pop track with a too-cute video made of paper cutouts. Yep: Etsy-tastic.



Sweet Thing’s “Change of Seasons” is too timely to not mention. And the song rocks. And the video features swimsuits, blow-up instruments, hula hoops and a massive block party. Yes, yes, yes.



Tiny Animals’ “Wait for Me” combines live action and what look like life-size cutouts (although they could be digital) in the vid for the electro-pop tune. Take that, Katie Costello!

And finally, Megafaun’s video for “Carolina Days” is absolutely hilarious. Just watch it. I won’t even try to explain it.
