Watch, Listen, Tell

SO i discovered this little youtube channel called "watchlistentell" about a year and a half ago and fell in love with it. It produces fantastic looking videos consisting of up and coming bands doing acoustic versions of one of their own songs. i'm constantly checking the channel each month eagerly awaiting a new video from a really incredible band. It's getting bigger by the day and i wouldn't want you guys to miss out...

SO HERE ARE MY FAVOURITES:

Bombay Bicycle Club - Dust On the Ground




The Joy Formiddable - Whirring




The Golden Silvers - Magic Touch




Two Door Cinema Club - Something Good Can Work




Villagers - Becoming A Jackel




Chief - Night and Day




Lucy Rose - Night Bus




Forest Fire - Fortune Teller




Cloud Control - Gold Canary




there you go, i hope you enjoyed.

Novels

I stumbled across this little band called Novels. It's a mixture of band members from Born Ruffians, Tokyo Police Club, Jay Sad, Ex~Po and Will Currie and the Country Frenchmen. They made a small 5 song ep back in 2009, but never released, claiming:

" NOVELS won't be sold in CD stores, on the internet, or anywhere else. Instead, we'll give them away, or put them places. Maybe you'll find a copy sitting on a park bench. Maybe a masked man will hand you one as he passes you on the street. Maybe none of these things will happen. But we'll make sure that everyone gets a chance to listen if they want to."


But alas, they have been nice enough to give birth to five video chapters of the recording processes of each song.
