My articles on Local Natives and inc. should be coming out around the same time, so there’s really no slowing down for the holidays this year.

Nice, my photo made it to the fuckyeahspoon Tumblr page. Check out my review of Divine Fits’ first LA show via the link below. Not one of my best, but the interview couldn’t have gone better. Look out for that next week.
Cover art for Britt Daniel’s new band Divine Fits. Not sure if this is for their first single or for the LP.
