Videos of the Day – week of 1/26

bonus video above: I have no idea who Anthem Lights is (a comedy boy band??), but when I searched for “Katy Perry parody” on YouTube, this came up & it’s actually pretty well done!

1/26 – Death Cab For Cutie debuted a lyric video for their brand-new track “Black Sun”…new album coming in March!

1/27 – she’s based in Nashville, is part of the Jenny Lewis touring band, recorded in Richmond with the Spacebomb collective, got 5-stars from The Guardian & once entered the Folgers Jingle contest…it’s Natalie Prass!

1/29 – The Baracksdubs folks are at it again…I can only imagine how many hours this took!

1/30 – Will Butler of Arcade Fire has his 1st solo album coming out in March…here’s the new video for “Anna.”  What do you think of the sneakers/suit combo!?
