Finally a new psychedelic video worth chatting about, is Devendra Banhart's music video for "Baby." This is what happens when cool famous dudes hang out together (MGMT, GZA). Hotness.

The local music scene was a little slow this past week, due to a mass exodus of SD bands traveling to Austin for South by Southwest. Writer and Tape Deck Mountain toured there and back together, and were nice enough to check in with us from the desert. Niether band was very long winded, but both did showcase some artistic skills on their Southwest themed postcards.
A postcard from The Paddle Boat was lost in the mail. Apparently said postcard contained a detailed account of Dave Meade accidentally robbing a late night taco joint. You'll have to ask the band for the recap.

Projections are rad, and so is this band from Florida called Holiday Shores. Andy Ralph got me hooked on these dudes, and this song in particular I can't stop playing. Check out the video for Phones Don't Feud below and then grab their debut album, cause it's real good.

I picked up the Blessa single from Toro y Moi the other week off iTunes, and haven't stopped listening to both tracks. South Carolinian chiller Chaz Bundick is the man behind the hazy summer jams, and he's heading to The Loft this weekend, en route to SXSW.
Toro y Moi - '109'
The first person to email info@sezio.org and tell us how Toro y Moi is connected to our March 25th show at Sushi Art (other than all of the bands being hyped by Pitchfork) wins a pair of tickets to the March 13th show at UCSD's Loft with The Ruby Suns.
* This contest has been won by Keegan Fong. Both hailing from South Carolina, Chaz Bundick is good friends with Ernest Greene from Washed Out. Tickets for the show can still be purchased at The Loft's website.

Get your bicycles tuned up because this weekend looks like it will be the first sunny one we've had here in San Diego for awhile. (Yes I check the weather report every Monday, it gives me something to look forward to). With the time changing as well this weekend, I got my mind geared towards my Summer body and new music to move to. If you haven't heard of the three Irish lads that make up Two Door Cinema Club yet, now's the time. How good will "I Can Talk" be to race around to??
