Waxahatchee - Under A Rock SCS

SoundCloud Song

Time can not go fast enough! Waxahatchees latest album will be released in early April and myself for one can not wait. So far Wichita Recordings have released 2 tracks from the upcoming release 'Ivy Tripp'. The first being Air which compared to this track (below) is a lot more haunting and slightly depressing lyrically, and the second song being a lot more fresh and cheery coming in at just over 2 minutes long. Don't get me wrong, I love both the tracks and am expecting equally great music from this wonderful musician in the near future.

Holly Drummond & SXSW

I have been on YouTube so much over this Easter break and when i'm not watching Fallon or Kimmel videos I try to stay on music related vids. One particular individual i'm liking at the moment is Holly Drummond. On her channel http://www.youtube.com/user/smoothiesforme she posts lots of different covers, mostly fairly well known songs. All with just an acoustic guitar and her voice. I love her Scottish accent and how you can hear it at certain points whilst she sings. If you are interested in her original work, on Bandcamp she has 2 EP's, 1 you can pay any amount and the other is like £2 minimum which is not a big price to pay. http://hollydrummond.bandcamp.com/

 

Also the other day I was reading an NME round up of SXSW and I checked a couple of artists out that they recommended:

 

Waxahatchee - Live acoustic of Sister Saint

QUESTION

 

I'm interested if any guys are particularly excited about Reading & Leeds festival this year. It you could leave a comment below about your opinions of the line-up or anything, that would be cool.

 

Thanks
