So...fancy yourself a Daytrotter fan? Well they've got nothing on these guys. Welcome to Thunderdome. The gauntlet has been laid, my dear friends.
The gist is this: grab your favorite indie artists, including Spoon, Daniel Johnston, Okkervil River the National, and Elvis Perkins...stick them in the back of a cab and have them play. Whilst driving around. Genius.
In other news...Beach House's record release went swimmingly last night at the G-Spot. Check out their latest video, just released, for track "Heart of Chambers" after the jump.

BAM! BAM!
BAM (also known as Brooklyn Academy of Music) is holding their 2nd annual Brooklyn Next Fest from February 15-24. The festival is tasked with the unenviable job of celebrating that stagnant music scene up in Brooklyn (sarcasm).
Notable performers include the excellent White Rabbits, Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone of TV on the Radio, epic heartbreakers the National, My Brightest Diamond, country-folk artist Laura Cantrell and a healthy dose of electronica from Excepter.
Check the official site here for more info.
And as usual, some vids/tunes after the jump for your perusal.
