Purple Mountains – “All My Happiness Is Gone” [Video]

Songwriter, poet and cartoonist David Berman, best known as the co-founder of indie-rock institution Silver Jews, died on Wednesday of an apparent suicide. He was just 52 years old.

Sadly, Berman had just returned to the music scene with his excellent Purple Mountains record so this news hits even harder. The one thing about artists is that their music always lives on and Berman’s work with the Silver Jews will always have high praise. So will his Purple Mountains record along with this single. RIP David Berman.

Mikal Cronin – “Show Me” [Video]

Mikal Cronin will release Seeker, his fourth full-length to date, on October 25th via Merge Records. In conjunction with today’s announcement, he presents the lead single / video, “Show Me.” In the video, directed by Yasi Salek, Cronin sings as he drives a 1964 Ford Falcon, while frequent collaborators and friends play instruments in the backseat.

“‘Show Me’ is a song about feeling small in an overwhelming world,” says Cronin. “There’s a not-quite-subtle hint of the Heartbreakers in the instrumentation and arrangement, having asked many friends to play or sing. It’s one of my favorite songs from the album, I hope you like it too.”

Following a few rough years of touring, relationships beginning and ending, and writer’s block, Cronin decided to make a change. He packed up and retreated to Idyllwild, a small town in the mountains of southern California, where he spent a month in the cabin, alone. The solitude proved fruitful, with the bulk of Seeker being written and demoed during this time period. “It was so quiet and peaceful. I got weird looks at the store. I got bug bites that didn’t heal for months,” says Cronin. “I walked around a small lake a few times. I wrote. I took literally something that’s usually a hypothetical, something every artist thinks about doing. It worked.”

After a series of fires sparked by an arsonist forced Cronin to evacuate immediately, he returned a few days early to LA and began the recording process at Palmetto Studios. There, engineer Jason Quever and a crew of close friends helped bring the album together. The record was backed by Ty Segall’s Freedom Band. Nature fresh on his mind, he was driven to use organic sounds. “I wanted to bring you into the room. Jason and I talked about the Beatles’ White Album a lot when placing mics,” says Cronin. “I brought a charred pine cone from the woods to the studio, just in case it would help. Fire—specifically its cycle of purging and reseeding the landscape—is a central theme to the record. Death and rebirth.”

Cronin will tour across North America in support of Seeker. All tour dates are on sale and can be found below.
Seeker is available for pre-order in the Merge store HERE.

Whitney – “Valleys (My Love)” [Video]

Whitney, the Chicago-based band led by vocalist/drummer Julien Ehrlich and guitarist Max Kakacek, presents a new single/video “Valleys (My Love),” from their forthcoming album, Forever Turned Around, out August 30th via Secretly Canadian. “Valleys (My Love)” describes the anxiety of being away from a loved one, and was inspired by a particularly scenic drive in Montana. The accompanying video by Kamp Grizzly, directed by Nick Woytuk and shot in Portland, Oregon, documents the life of a commercial truck driver, and illustrates the connection between traveling for work and the band’s own personal experiences.

Whitney will appear at the Mo Pop Festival this weekend before embarking on a lengthy European and North American tour. The live band is comprised of Ehrlich and Kakacek, plus keyboardist Malcolm Brown, guitarist Print Chouteau, bassist Josiah Marshall, trumpeter Will Miller, and Ziyad Asrar who makes his return to the group on this upcoming tour.
