Virginia Beach, VA A personal favorite, I first mentioned We Are Trees back in 2010. The other day I was reminded of their follow up album, “Girlfriend” the band put out a while back. Beautifully harmonic, pop-hook driven with slow and inspired rhythms, We Are Trees never disappoints. This is one gifted band, capable of [...]

We are Trees are a Virginia Beach duo/quartet/party that plays a variety of music on their latest album “Girlfriend”, from acoustic rock to fuzzy beach rock. They just came off of a stint on Daytrotter which is pretty fucking awesome. Check out their song “You” our song of the day! Check out their whole new [...]

Melancolía desatada es lo primero que se me viene a la mente al escuchar We Are Trees , grupo formado por James Nee, Josiah Schlater y Rocky Capizzi que desde la edición de su primer E.P “Boyfriend” (2010) nos regala preciosos instantes de evocación gracias a la increíble sensibilidad que enmarca su música, la cual tienen su máximo exponente en “Daniel” una canción de esas que desde el primer instante en que la escuchas sabes que te va acompañar por mucho tiempo, ah! es que es una pequeña maravilla de esas que poco se ven y que como nunca el ...

We Are Trees is comprised of Virginia Beach native James Nee and his supporting band, who have taken the lo-fi scene by storm and flipped it upside down. With production that nurtures fidelity as a living, breathing art, this Virginia Beach band’s sound lies somewhere between the plains...

With a sound that immediately brings to mind early Grizzly Bear, Virginia Beach’s We Are Trees have made an impressive second EP stock full of lush harmonies, post-Galaxie 500 guitar tones, and laid-back grooves. Hooks are abundant, and each song is a tight piece of pop that mixes elements from the entire canon of American [...]

As summer begins to melt away like a brilliant setting sun, the weather will soon turn more brisk, the leaves on the trees will die a flashy, colorful death and the air will become more crisp.  The first week of September is a seminal time of the year – millions of kids are back in [...]

Click image to download full album Sounds like: Tennis, We Are Trees, Sun Airway "TV Girl - Benny and the Jetts" What's so good? When the vocals kick in on “Benny and the Jetts,” it’s a little off-putting. But stick with the song, and listen to the entire album (which you can download for free on their Facebook page ) and you’ll begin to warm up to the fuzzy vintage rock of TV Girl. Trung Ngo and Brad Petering are from sunny San Diego – Ngo handles vocals, and Petering arranges the beats (taken from samples of everything from Dylan ...

Click image to download track Sounds like: Sea of Bees, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, I'm From Barcelona, We Are Trees "Family of the Year - St. Croix" What's so good? I can’t believe it’s been 6 months since I last wrote about Family of the Year. Since then, they’ve been hard at work – coming off a tour and recording a new EP that’s slated for release on September 27. “St. Croix,” the single off their new EP, is warm and upbeat, a perfect track to compliment the end of summer. You can definitely ...

Click image to download track Sounds like: Yellow Ostrich, We Are Trees "Wise Blood - Nosferatu" What's so good? “Nosferatu,” the first single off Wise Blood’s new EP These Wings , is a shimmery, smokey pop track whose complex layers speak volumes. A little bit of lo-fi and a little bit of electro pop, this track has spine in the form of a repeating guitar chord progression, binding the song’s other elements together and giving it direction. This is a particular feat considering his sample-heavy approach to song creation; and it’s this cohesion that makes me excited to ...
