Well, I’m off again this weekend to Champaign/Urbana, IL for the 8th annual Pygmalion Music Festival and this year promises to be the best yet, with performances from Grizzly Bear, Dirty Projectors, Dinosaur Jr., HUM, Best Coast and many more. One of my most anticipated acts is Unknown Mortal Orchestra who played a incendiary set at the festival just last year (so good enough they’ve asked them back for more). The Portland-via-New Zealand band just released the excllent first single from their upcoming LP and it’s an infectious psych-pop tune that sees the band moving towards a more polished, jangly sound.
