The Lovely Sparrows return with Billboard premiere!

The Lovely Sparrows, the longtime Austin area project of Shawn Jones, have made their return from a seven year hiatus from the pop music world to bring you this video for “A Light,” which just premiered on Billboard today!

Godmother premiere new video at PopMatters

Berlin-based queer art project Godmother have dropped a new video for “No Kidding” off their recently released self-titled album. Godmother was released September 21 by New Pangea Records and it takes a look at the darker side of humanity with tongue and cheek humor. “No Kidding” is essentially about recognizing that it’s time to let the human species die out. As Joey Hansom puts it, “'No Kidding' is no 'Stairway to Heaven' – it's an escalator to nothingness." Check out the video premiere at PopMatters and stream the full record on Spotify.
