No Excuses



the Morning Benders' (San Francisco, CA) new album, BIG ECHO will be released on Mar.9th, 2010 from Rough Trade Records. Produced by Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear, the album continues their tradition of making folk-tinged indie pop to make ears acquiesce sublimely, as evidenced in the video above for "Excuses," presented by Yours Truly. The song, "Promises" from BIG ECHO can be download in advance for free here.

Other videos by Yours Truly include live performances by
Papercuts, Band of Skulls, and Thao with the Get Down Stay Down.

Special thanks to Michael Pooley of Pink Mist and Painted Highways for the video turn-on.

  2. Cool! Thanks for stopping by. Yeah, I'm friends with Julian, the drummer, and I used to be neighbors with Chris when we lived in Berkeley. The other post was a small informal photo shoot that they asked me to do before one of their performances. What have you been up to?
