The Amazing at The Levi’s/FADER Fort

We were pretty psyched when The Amazing rolled through our Ace Hotel New York suite at The Levi’s®/FADER Fort last week and started gently strumming the acoustic guitars, which turned into a Nick Drake/Oasis singalong, which eventually morphed into the song, “Is it Likely,” off of their new album.  The presence of good-natured Swedish people at the Fort this year was greatly appreciated.  Check out the video here, and if you’re lucky, maybe we’ll post the aforementioned outtakes someday.

Party in the Pines, Episode 5: Vietnam

A couple weekends ago we spent some time at Party in the Pines, a low-key festival in a sun-dappled northern California forest presented by Kemado Records, Mexican Summer and (((folkYEAH!))). FADER TV captured all of the many ultra-lax musicians on hand—Kurt Vile, Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Dungen, Saviours and more. Here’s a mellow tune from our boys in Vietnam, transplanted into the piney forest all the way from the concrete streets of Brooklyn.

Party in the Pines at Big Sur, Part 1: Dungen

We spent this past weekend at Party in the Pines, a low-key festival in a sun-dappled northern California forest presented by Kemado Records, Mexican Summer and (((folkYEAH!))).  FADER TV captured all of the many ultra-lax musicians on hand—Kurt Vile, Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Dungen, Saviours, Vietnam, and more—and will somehow put up all the footage this week if we don’t decide to just linger on forever in hazy Big Sur. If there is a better way than this to bid summer one last hurrah, let us know.
