Everything’s Alright is Matt Engers, Andrew Morrison, and Hannah Gamble. They released a wonderful ep back in June called Plum Hose, and recently released an intimate video for a track from the EP called "Death Cruise".

Yesterday the trio released a new single called "Wanda" from a project cleverly titled Making Love is Good For You, Bro. The new track is funky almost verging on hip hop, but maintaining that indie-folk the band does so well.

Sofar Chicago released a new video this week with the Urbana-based group Grandkids. The band, featuring Vivian McConnell of Santah, released their debut full-length, Timeshare, earlier this year.

You can catch The Future Laureates at Double Door to celebrate this new effort on October 25th with Vintage Blue, Milktooth, and Antony & The Tramps.

Seems like a fitting time of year to see a band called Best Witches. The punk-pop band released their debut EP, Jail, back in August. The album is filled with raw garage or basement rock and is available digitally or on cassette.
