NONA is the solo project of LA’s Michael Goldman. He has a very dreamy/slow wave indie rock sound or as Goldman describes it – “a little bit out there.”
I came across “Otherways” the other day while digging through Hype Machine for some new tunes and I definitely stumbled upon a new favorite. I believe a proper release is in the works, but I really don’t know for sure. In the meantime, enjoy “Otherways” below and catch NONA live if you can.
Hamilton Leithauser (The Walkmen) has announced a world tour behind his new album with former Vampire Weekend member Rostam, I Had A Dream That You Were Mine. The 2017 tour kicks off January 13 in Marfa, Texas, and will cover the US and Europe. Unfortunately, Rostam will not be joining Leithauser on this tour, but this should still be a show worth catching if you can swing it.

Moby & The Void Pacific Choir released their debut album last week, These Systems Are Failing. And today, they’re sharing the official video for “Are You Lost In The World Like Me?”, directed by Steve Cutts.
Moby says – “A few years ago I saw Steve Cutts’ ‘Man’ video and was amazed and blown away. I did some internet sleuthing and found his email address and humbly asked him to make a video for me. And, lucky me, he agreed. The video he made for ‘Are You Lost In Yhe World Like Me?’ is without question one of the best videos that’s ever been made for one of my songs.”
