KR artist of the week!! Chester French

This week we shine the spotlight on Star Trak's Chester French. Consisting of Maxwell Drummey and D.A. Wallach, these 2 decided to name the band after sculptor Daniel Chester French (designer of the Lincoln Memorial). Me being the big fan of Pharrell and Star Trak that I am, I discovered them by just hitting up the Star Trak website and checking up on em to see what's new. After reading plenty of interviews with Pharrell and hearing about Chester French frequently, I soon became interested in hearing them. After hearing "She Loves Everybody" I can't wait for the album to drop.

If you're in Cleveland, be sure to hit up the Grog Shop on Coventry May 12 for the Chester French + Lady Sovereign show.

KR artist of the week! - The Bird & The Bee

This week, our artist of the week is The Bird & The Bee. We have definitely caught on to everything they have out. Their music is... well I'd call it addicting. Every time I listen to their album I end up listening to it a second time. Inara George, the lead singer, has such a distinctive voice which at times seems monotone, but it goes perfect with their sound. I also seen she is the daughter of Lowell George, who is the founder of a rock band my dad used listen to back in his hey-day called Little Feat... which is a good little tidbit. The song/video I chose to throw up for them is "Love Letter to Japan" off their Ray Guns Are Not Just the Future LP. The album is a definite must hear!


I decided to put up a second video by them, "Polite Dance Song", which is the first song I ever heard by them. I heard it on their Please Clap Your Hands EP awhile ago and it still remains a favorite of mine. Plus, to connect with my last post... the video was directed by Eric Wareheim who is 1/2 of Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! If familiar with the show, look for Palmer Scott aka Mr. This Is What I Do I Sit On You.
