Out of the Box w/guest DJ Gabe Garcia

We continue to make the Nomad the place to be on Tuesday nights. This Tuesday we're bringing it extra-proper with Kanser's DJ Gabe Garcia who cold-rocks parties anywhere he's at it. Don't miss this one!

Girls, "Lust For Life"

Girls - Lust for life [nsfw] from sage brown on Vimeo.

Off of their 2009 debut, Album, which received much praise from Pitchfork. This video and track came out at the wrong time - winter. This is definitely a summer jam that is everyone's soundtrack while hanging out with your friends during these few months, and long days.

And yes, there's a penis in there. Get over it.

The Like, "June Gloom"

This reminds me of some 90's "alternative" rock. I'm in love... just can't decide which one. There's something undeniably sexy about a lady on the drums, though. Just saying...

A couple weeks late on this, but the kids are so undeniably cute I had to share it. Of course, if you're living under a rock, the track comes from their fantastic new album Brothers, out now.
