Woods- Cali In A Cup
My summer break is coming to a close, and there is a good chance that you are in a similar if not the same position. But instead of hanging your head in sorrow, why not remember the good times that you probably had while listening to one of the most summery songs of this summer. Last month, Woods released "Cali in a Cup", the first single off their upcoming LP Bend Beyond, which is out September 18th on Woodsist. Incorporating jangly guitars, hazy dylanesque harmonica interludes, and the smooth falsetto of Jeremy Earl, this is the perfect song to get nostalgic with. The Brooklyn band have crafted a fantastically upbeat, carefree track, while staying true to there lo-fi, folk-rock roots. Hopefully this will tide you over until September. Until then:

Freedom at 21
Jack White has released the music video for Freedom at 21, a
standout song from his solo album, Blunderbuss. Directed by Hype Williams, an
icon in Hip-Hop videography, this video tells the story of Jack being detained
by the police. A quick synopsis of the video: Jack is seen driving a neon
lime-green muscle car, which is speeding down an otherwise empty highway.
Everything except for the car is a blue-grey hue. An unusually attractive
female police officer sees him speeding. The same cop briefly turns into some
sort of vampiric creature and is briefly viewed crawling on the hood of Jack’s
car. She turns back into an officer and detains him before taking him to a
holding cell. In the cell with him is an unusually attractive female inmate.
Somewhere in between.. err... making a friend and playing a guitar solo he escapes from prison only to be recaptured. This video is fun, fast paced, and
mysterious, successfully matching the song it is paired with. And Jack looks cooler
than ever. Well done Jack.
