Light Pollution VS Duck & Cover

By
In an update to last week's review of Light Pollution's enjoyable new EP, we, the editors of Duck & Cover Music, asked the band the hard-hitting questions. Read on:

D&C: Do you have a favorite pair of shoes?
LP: Boots!

D&C: Is there a song you never get tired of hearing?
LP: Evil Woman by ELO

D&C: Were any of Light Pollution in the high school marching band?
LP: Matt (our drummer) was in the marching band. Heather (viola) was in Orchestra, but that's not as cool.

D&C: Any plans to play out west (specifically Seattle/Vancouver)?
LP: We've been to Seattle, but never to Vancouver. We would love to go in the near future.

So there you have it. Big thanks to Light Pollution, and to Brooke for getting us in touch with them.

The Racoon Wedding :: Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth

Download The Paper Boy from The Racoon Wedding's album, Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth Sounds Like : they're gonna rip your ribcage out and find your heart RIYL : White Rabbits, Portugal. The Man, Fanfarlo, Rolling Stones ala Beggar's Banquet From the Press Release : Forming from the ashes of Vermicious Knid, and authoring songs in the basement of the all ages not-for-profit art space they own in a nook of the city’s forgotten downtown, frontman Tim Ford and company boast a sense of loyalty to their community that few other bands share. On their debut LP, Gather Gather Bones/Rattle Rattle Truth , issued this October via their own Ford Plant Recordings Co., the band enlisted the help of engineer Leon Taheny (of the Final Fantasy recording credit) and hammered out a record that teems with the spirit of long-forgotten roots music. It’s indebted to the history of mighty back porch music: unbridled, unedited, beautifully intense.

May Day Is Lei Day

By
For the past 31 years in Honolulu, the Brothers Cazimero have hosted an annual May Day variety show at the Waikiki Shell Ampitheatre (because May Day is Lei Day!). When living there, I had the privilege of attending twice, the last time being the 30th anniversary, and just after the sad passing of the legendary Don Ho. Both times were, at the risk of allowing my cynical mask slip, magical. The May Day show is great fun, and follows the format of an old time variety show -- there is an aura of glamour interspersed with a decidedly camp sensibility, with hula stars of past and present gracing the stage. Spirits are high, and the banter among the performers is priceless; at times it feels as though you've wandered into a family reunion, and are a long lost cousin -- instantly at home and enveloped in the warmth. It's a time to celebrate the spirit and culture that truly do make the islands such a special place. There's a song that plays before the Sunset On The Beach movies...

Whitey puts the "F-U" back in Funk. Download the track "West of Hope" to hear what I mean. What : Two free tickets to see indie post-funk sensation, Whitey, at The Railway Club in downtown Vancouver. When : Friday! Friday! Friday! (6 November) How the funk do I get them? Leave a comment. That's all. RIYL : Vampire Weekend, Ozomatli, Cat Empire A Few Words : We don't do ticket give-aways very often here at Duck & Cover. In fact, we don't do them at all. Which is why this is such a special event.

They were just sitting there. So I'm turning my good fortune into an opportunity for you, my loyal reader(s).
