May 20th, 2008 2 Comments

From the 80s sax solo at the end of “Hearts on Fire” to the dreamy nostalgia of “Future,” Dan Whitford and Co. make some of the most gorgeously crafted indie-pop this side of the century; they get the Pitchfork boys and HypeMachine girls all together now.

Friends have had to deal with my hyper antics since last Friday when ultimate mashup DJ, Girl Talk, headlined a show at Toads Place in New Haven, CT. Packed in like sardines at the sold out show, we were slowly inched […]
