M83's debut at Walt Disney Concert Hall, new Kweller video

M83 and the Los Angeles Philharmonic perform a co-headlining concert that pairs the orchestra and M83's chief star-gazer Anthony Gonzalez in a program that features individual performances, as well as M83's debut performance with an orchestra. This one-night-only concert, held on Saturday, March 7, at 9 p.m., also marks M83's debut at Walt Disney Concert Hall. Julian Kuerti, Assistant Conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, conducts.

I wrote up a complete article at PoshMama on the latest from M83.

Ben Kweller is proud to announce the premiere of his new music video for "Fight" on MySpace Music today, Thursday, January 29. As one of the highlight tracks from his soon-to-be released ATO Records album "Changing Horses," "Fight" is an upbeat representation of the album's musical craftsmanship, a body of work saturated in Country music influences and the kind of poignant songwriting one is to expect from the seasoned musician. The music video for "Fight" is a good-natured clip that illustrates exactly the lengths one will go for their buddies in a pinch. Check out the video below.

Play for me Ray LaMontagne

That alt. country rasp is nearly seductive. And I love the acoustics. Ray LaMontagne I'm perfectly okay with you singing Till The Sun Turns Black. You need to know this guy, he is an amazing singer/songwriter.

Ray LaMontagne currently lives in Maine and I do believe that would be a beautiful area to write great music and free your mind. So the album was released on August 29, 2006 in the US.

"On the eleven songs that comprise Till the Sun Turns Black, all of this is audible -- the demand for meaningfulness, the requirement of emotional relevancy, the struggle of working through material in the form of songs that refuse, until properly recorded, to leave the artist alone."
