The Dig’s first album, Electric Toys, is out now. if you like what you hear, you can buy the album here.

Yeasayer has teamed up with renowned artist and video director Andreas Nilsson (MGMT, Fever Ray, Moby, José González) to create a bizarre and poignant, humorous and heartfelt video for the bands newest single off Odd Blood, “Madder Red.”

Kristen Bell, the cutesy star of Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Veronica Mars, plays the lead, mourning over her beloved “pet,” which happens to be a throbbing, oozing sac of vestigial limbs with kind, blue eyes that you can’t help but love.  Read more...

One of the many things that I absolutely love about working with Project Rhythm Seed is the free music. We receive new CD’s and album downloads quite regularly from the many PR/publicity firms that we work with. So many that quite honestly there are times when CD’s pile up for a bit before getting opened and listened to. In the same such manner I recently became aware of a new band from New York called The Dig. I received their new CD, Electric Toys, in a stack with about 10 others. It took me about a week to get down to listening to them, but oh what a pleasant surprise for me when I finally did.  Read more...
