Throw Me the Statue




The Ruby Suns


Le Loup




Craigslist played an important role in the creation of Le Loup. Sam Simkoff (banjo, keyboard), the band's founder, used the site to find the remaining 7 members of Le Loup: Christian Ervin (computer), Michael Ferguson (guitar), Nicole Keenan (keyboard, French horn), Dan Ryan (bass), Robert Sahm (drums), May Tabol (guitar) and Jim Thomson (guitar). Comparisons to Le Loup include Animal Collective, Sufjan, and The Books, but really, they're more than just a mix of any artists. Any similarities, they say, are "more in style rather than sound." Their 2007 album, “The Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations' Millennium General Assembly,” was released under sub-Sub Pop label, Hardly Art.

Bodies of Water




Bodies of Water are a group of four from California and Arizona. They are Kyle Gladden (bass), Meredith Metcalf (organ), Jessie Conklin (drums), and David Metcalf (guitar). They all sing vocals as well. From their website: They draw from a number of disparate traditions, combining the metaphysical intensity of gospel, the primitive gusto of punk rock, the earnest idiosyncracy of american folk, the sonic inclusiveness of tropicalia, the planned jamming of prog, and the sincere melodrama of musical theatre.

They released their record “Ears Will Pop & Eyes Will Blink” in 2007, and just finished their forthcoming 2008 release of “A Certain Feeling.” Expect it in a few months.
