Music Envy: Motion City Soundtrack covers Pavement

I remember a few things about my middle school experience. One of them was jamming out to Pavement’s ‘Cut Your Hair’ The video features a small clip of why MCS chose to cover Pavement. The lead singer, Justin Pierre, lists Pavement as one of the bands he grew up with and could listen to forever. I think I missed the train on Pavement, but I have a good feeling Darby is well versed. I’m going to have to give him a call.

Music Envy: The Pretenders - Night In my Veins

I think at this point we all know that I love pop music to no end. That being said, I too often forget about The Pretenders. Chrissie Hynde and the boys really bring the thunder to this morning show. I particularly enjoy the solo section @ 2:20. It’s always great to see a string quartet lose their minds.  After doing a few rounds of youtube surfing, I also really enjoyed this performance of ‘In the Middle of the Road.’

Music Envy: Updates and Shoutouts!

halfwaynorth has been working hard over the last few months trying to prepare for the release of our latest EP ‘Ghost Shuffle.’ One of the most exciting things we are working on is our visual image. We have gotten to work with some great stylists, photographers, and directors and are looking forward to working with even more in the future.

Kasia Koniar, one of the directors we are working with, has been a huge supporter of halfwaynorth over the last few months. Her guidance has expanded our minds and our hearts. We just want to give a little bit of that love back. Her latest video has been entered into a contest and is set to Moby’s latest ‘Wait For Me’ and it is beautiful.

Help Kasia win top prize and vote! (Don’t forget to spread the word)

Music Envy: Yawny at the Apocalypse (Andrew Bird)

A nice little peice by Mr. Bird himself. The video (not by Bird) really emphasizes the destruction of the natural world, but really I just like it because we are spoofing some Yanni. Yanni and his mustache.

Music Envy: Stevie Nicks “Wild Heart”

I’m not a huge fan of Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks, but its mostly due to lack of exposure. A friend of mine posted this video the other night and since then I’ve watched it about a billion times. It’s simply gorgeous.
