MY SON THE BUM ANIMATED CHRISTMAS VIDEO

Santa Claus is ‘Bi- Polar.’ However, it’s because he visits both the North and South Poles on Christmas Eve. For the rest of us, some will inevitably go insane when our relatives arrive for the holidays. My Son the Bum has managed to capture that moment of mental meltdown in a hysterical animated musical film short entitled, “Flight Deck” (For Christmas.)
“Flight Deck” (For Christmas) features the creative compositional and production skills of Brian Kroll, who is the mastermind behind My Son the Bum. Along for the ‘satirical sleigh ride’ is a musician familiar with ‘songs of the season,’ drummer John O’Reilly of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra (West.)

MARTIN SEXTON ON WSJ.COM

With a long road trip looming on the horizon, in the pre-iPhone era, the only logical thing to help pass the time along the way was to make a mix tape. On long drives, these battered cassettes (and later, CD burns) is what soothed our souls and kept us from drifting off the road.

These tapes are what inspired acclaimed singer/songwriter Martin Sexton while writing songs for his 8th studio album Mixtape of the Open Road, to be released on February 10th via KTR/Redeye. Earlier today, The Wall Street Journal premiered the first single from the album, “Remember That Ride,” calling it a “slinky groove” with “a loose, open feel that mixes in handclaps, slide guitar licks and slightly distorted vocals on an earworm refrain.”

TWO GALLANTS’ FORTHCOMING ALBUM + “WE ARE UNDONE”

Two Gallants’ Adam Stephens (guitar, harmonica, keyboard and vocals) and Tyson Vogel (drums, guitar and vocals) spent one month recording We Are Undone with Karl Derfler (Tom Waits) at Panoramic House in Northern California. Of the title track, Stephens says “‘We Are Undone’ was, without being too blunt about it, trying to make sense of this unending pressure to acquire and consume, and usually as conspicuously as possible, that has taken a hold of our culture.”

THE FAMILIAR VIDEO “WORLD ENDS”

The Familiar are an alternative electropop duo made of Ruth Mirsky and Mads Martinsen. The duo created these intimate and lush soundscapes paired with pop hooks without Mirsky and Martinsen ever working together in the same room. Ruth is a Norwegian-American based in Brooklyn, NY, while Mads lives in Norway. They describe the group as a conjuring of strangers — polar opposites who find inspiration in the uncanny darkness of winters with no sun, the unyielding lightness of summers with no night, and a city that never sleeps. They released their debut EP Rooms in May 2014.

FREE EP BY MARTIE SHORTIE

The Theodore EP lives in this unique creative space where it is both thoughtful and party ready. Master Shortie worked with a slew of notable producers on this record including The Beat Brigade, Jo A & Braden Blair and Azekel among others. Rather than using these producer’s signature sounds to garner attention on the release, Shortie challenged them to step outside of their comfort zone on each collaboration. The resulting creative chemistry generated something truly special for both parties, pushing both emcee and producer to be a better artist. The final product is a 6 song EP that will undoubtedly find the same sort of success stateside that Master Shortie already experiences in the U.K., and solidify his role as the current torchbearer of a U.K.-based musical movement that is tearing down the walls between hip hop, electro and funk.

PICK YOUR POISON NEW VIDEO

Owensboro, Kentucky is best known for bourbon and BBQ and not so much for the brand of alternative hard rock that the five-piece Pick Your Poison has showcased early on in the band’s career. The band has now partnered up with YouTube channel BlankTV, the largest independent music channel on YouTube, to exclusively premiere the band’s music video for their new single, entitled “Eye For An Eye.” The single is the first material from the band since their debut EP entitled A Calculated Use Of Word And Mouth that included hit single “Flame In The Rain.”

INTERVIEW WITH LECRAE

“While our first meeting sparked a heated religious debate among viewers in 2011 due in large part to a “Christian rapper,” as he’s often mislabeled (albeit not entirely without merit), relinquishing his thoughts on Tyler, the Creator and Odd Future, who at least at the time were considered by many conservatives to be satanic or devil-worshiping, I decided to take a lighter, more nostalgic approach this time around, with discussion topics ranging from a chance encounter with Dikembe Mutombo as a youngster, being introduced to hip-hop at a halfway house his mother was working at, and previously stocking shelves for a living — which may or may not play a role in the Grammy Award-winner keeping his accolades tucked away in his closet rather than out on the mantel.”

BILLY JOEL HONORED

The Library of Congress is celebrating Billy Joel’s 50-year career and his selection as the 2014 recipient of the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song in the nation’s capital with a series of events, culminating in a star-studded concert tonight.

The nation’s lawmakers also recognized Joel’s creative genius at a luncheon yesterday. Speaking to a packed room of well-wishers, Joel said his mother, who passed away this year, “would have gotten such a kick out of this.”

He also recalled how the legacy of George and Ira Gershwin—the legendary American songwriting team—inspired him when he performed in the former Soviet Union in 1987. “Knowing I was there with George was a big help,” he said. Joel became the first American pop star to bring a full rock production to the Soviet Union. His two-week tour was released as a documentary.
