Nick Waterhouse x Live At Pappy & Harriet's
It's only fitting that Nick Waterhouse's first ever live album was recorded at the legendary Pappy & Harriet's. Growing up in Southern California, this roadhouse in the middle of the desert is as iconic as it gets. Waterhouse turned it into a sweat filled rhythm & blues stomper of an evening featuring an exclusive cover of the garage rock classsic 'Pushin' Too Hard' by The Seeds.⁣ ⁣ In fact, the Waterhouse sonic world might look a lot like a glimmering desert sky at dusk, or the damp, overheated air that awaits through the doors of Pappy's. And now we’re invited in. ⁣ Available on all Digital Platforms & Pre-Order Limited Edition Double LP (1,000 copies).⁣
The Molochs x Don't Look Back
The Molochs return with a song titled "Don't Look Back" from the same sessions as Flowers In The Spring.  The band explains: "Don’t Look Back came from reflecting on lost relationships, both friendly and romantic.  I thought about losing people in my life and wondered if it was my fault or if this is a normal part of living.  The answer is most likely both those things, and ultimately all we can do is move on."
Lionel Boy x Lately (Video)

Lionel Boy releases a video for "Lately" off his EP Who Is Dovey?  When asked about the video, Lionel had this to say: "Two summers ago, Casey (Lui Liu) and I drove up the Oregon coast to visit some friends in Seattle. We documented our drive with the intention of making a music video for a completely different project but the clips didn't end up working. Nearly a year later, when I had just finished demoing "Lately" from home, Casey decided to mess around with the old footage to the song. She threw up a 20-second clip on Instagram for fun that we pretty much forgot about until the single‘s release this past June. With not much else to do on lock down, we decided to play around one more time. We had all of these random clips of Casey running or kicking sand and I guess I spent 5 minutes filming a flying kite. When we found a way to fit them into the video, it was a really accomplished feeling. We were such different people on that trip and yet, I guess not much has changed. What we ended up with was a visual representation of the moments that make up a great trip."
