We're getting into the thick of March. With SXSW's music festival starting tomorrow, we can expect the industry to be somewhat asleep (except, of course, for any sort of news and coverage coming out of Austin), but that doesn't mean we don't have a great week of new releases to inform you about! Boston junk rockers Neptune have a new album entitled msg rcvd (pictured), which is sure to fly under most people's radar but not ours! It's probably our favorite new record this week. A live album from The Decemberists also comes out ...

Although I haven't seen him in concert in a few years, one of my favorite live performers is Van Hunt. The man throws down on stage with his cool yet hot combination of rock, soul, funk, and blues. Van regularly proves...

We already gave you the heads up that Van Hunt would be hitting the road soon as he embarked on a concert tour to promote his last album, What Were You Hoping For?. Well, if you happen to live in...

Dashes of punk, funk and even prog-rock make the singer's performance truly one of a kind.

While last year's What Were You Hoping For? might not have been what everyone expected from Van Hunt, it was definitely one of his most artistically daring outings to date. What was even better was witnessing him perform during his...

Van Hunt will play The Magic Bag in Ferndale, MI near Detroit on March 22nd . From his website: With his new album What Were You Hoping For?, Van Hunt employs a spare but dizzyingly vibrant meld of day-glo psychedelic soul laced with glammed-up riffs and the acerbic energy of punk. A joint venture between the Nashville-based Thirty Tigers and Hunt’s own label, godless-hotspot, the album sees the Grammy-winning musician/songwriter/producer turning up the volume on his genre-smashing songcraft and the results are altogether gripping. From the breakneck “Watching You Go Crazy Is Driving Me Insane” and “A Time ...

When asked about the her "Character" track the 22-year-old replied with: " It's important to know who you are as a person, all around, so you can take your creativity beyond the ordinary.

The “It’s a School Night” series at Bardot aren’t shy of eclecticism, given that they are curated by KCRW’s Chris Douridas. However, the lineup Monday featuring Jacuzzi Boys, Van Hunt and Tycho was out there even by the night’s eclectic standards. Miami’s Jacuzzi Boys catered to the punk-stoner’s music delight with their glam-influenced garage rock, [...]

Van Hunt's What Were You Hoping For? was one of last year's musical surprises. Not because it isn't good (it's actually one of Van's best, in my opinion), but because of the drastic departure from the soul sound we had...

From KCRW DJ Jason Kramer: On his recent Morning Becomes Eclectic appearance and well-received new release, Van Hunt continues to surprise me and now I’m happy to present a cover of one of my favorite songs. Here is his version of The Pixies timeless classic “Hey”, exclusively for KCRW listeners. In a short conversation with Van Hunt, I wanted to know why he chose this track, one of my favorite songs. His response: “I love The Pixies’ quirkiness. Black Francis and Kim Deal... really different, yet still melodic and intelligent writing.” I couldn’t agree more! In ...
