Fresh from the post is Phoebe Bridgers' cover of Tom Waits 'Day After Tomorrow'. Since 2017, it's been a yearly tradition for Phoebe Bridgers to drop a Christmas tune every year. In 2019, she even collaborated with other artists such as Fiona Apple and The National's...
beabadoobee
Beabadoobee might not be a household name yet, but you may have recently heard her voice - albeit a much faster, higher pitched version, in the song "Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head)" by Canadian rapper Powfu. The song currently holds a record of 5 million plays on...
The Eight Day Gap
But fear not, because of the eight day backlog, I come bearing gifts. Not just one, but eight songs that'll bring the Christmas cheer to fill up the eight day absence of our song a day / Christmas countdown. It also comes with a promise (that I plan to keep!) that...

The Nebraska Pop Festival is goes on its second year today, and to promote it, they're giving out a free digital mixtape of the bands participating. Today's the first night of the festival, which kicks off at Barley Street Tavern at 8:00 pm and continues on until...
Frederik Teige, Gaoler’s Daughter and Year of the Tiger
I've gathered a bit more time to regularly post for the next three weeks - so I'm going to make the most of it by posting new stuff to enjoy on the site 🙂 First on the agenda is Fresh from the Post. I know it's taken a bit of a backseat the last couple of months, but...
Some Sweet Treats for Your Ears
This will be the first time in months that I'll be doing Fresh from the Post without the usual Q and A - mostly because of the sudden shift in the force and my midichlorian count hitting an all time low (in other words, life got in the way and I haven't had the time...
A Cure for the Brokenhearted
This post is long overdue as I've had this neat little compilation stuck in my inbox for a couple of months now. For this week's Fresh from the Post, instead of an artist feature, we feature a couple of songs from A Cure for the Brokenhearted - a twelve-song...
Scary Mansion
Fresh from the Post comes back with another New York band. Hailing from Brooklyn, Scary Mansion's sound is a lovely blend of pop and rock, oftentimes accented by the sound of a thunderstick - a three-stringed acoustic instrument similar to a banjo or a dulcimer that...
Ze!
To truly bring out the 'fresh' in Fresh from the Post, this week, we're featuring an artist that exudes tons of energy from both her songs and her performances. We go off our beaten path of rock-pop, into Fresh from the Post's less traveled area of electro-dance, in...
Lucky Soul
I am a Lucky Soul fan. Indeed I am. From the first time I heard 'Lips Are Unhappy', I instantly got hooked - all the more with a full listen to their debut album The Great Unwanted. Ali Howard's sweet soothing vocals, partnered with 60's style upbeat soul, was the...

Techy Romantics
In this week's edition of Fresh from the Post, we sample a bit of Manila electropop with Techy Romantics. We caught up with the Techy Romantic's Dondi Virrey and asked him a few things about his group's brand of music... Just to give us a background about the...
Bark Bark Disco
Remember that saucy little music video with naked girls in censor strips? Well, this week's Fresh from the Post artist would be the guilty party behind that.Bark Bark Disco are Morris Woodcock, Charlotte and Antonio, three friends that form this little musical group,...

Showstar
I always love bands that come from non-english speaking countries - especially ones that release records in english. For me, there's always a draw to artists that step out of their comfort zone to create something that can reach a larger audience - and I thank them,...
Polynya
I never get much mail really. The electronic type I get tons of, but the real type that comes from Mr. Mailman, rarely. So imagine my delight when I received a CD in the mail, along with a cool numbered art print from Chapel Hill, NC band - Polynya. I have a weakness...
The Good Listeners
It's Fresh from the Post, the late edition. Due to an unforseen multiplication table breakdown with one of our resident indie music experts, Fresh from the Post comes to you on Wednesday instead of Tuesday this week. As they say, the best things come later in life....
Blonde Louis
It feels like it’s been forever since the last Fresh from the Post. Well technically, I haven’t done one since last year, so for this year, I'm thinking we should start out with something really fresh. To cater to the 18 and below demographic of this...
Dark Mean
It's Tuesday again and we're back with a new Fresh from the Post artist. I admit, I've just added another Hamilton, Ontario band to my favorite bands list after listening to Dark Mean's hard-not-to-love EP frankencottage.Sandy, Mark and Billy take a break from...
Fresh from the Post: Children Collide
From the soothing sounds of last post's orchestral music, I thought we'd turn the volume up a notch with some blood pumping music from this week's featured artist. Melbourne based Children Collide, provides us with just the right amount of noise and energy - and it's...
Fresh from the Post: Rescue Cat
This week, we feature an artist who's a staunch supporter of your local adopt-a-cat program. In fact, he recently set up a cat themed fund raising show for the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home (which was also one of my favorite Animal Planet shows next to Vets in...

It's Tuesday again, a day for new stuff to listen to - fresh from the post (e-post that is). We feature new music picked out fresh from our mailbox. As always, it is also the one day of the week that we get one lucky artist to take a jab at answering The Indie Music...
Fresh from the Post: The Very Sexuals
We haven't had a new Fresh from the Post feature in a while, so we've got something special. Here's a Dutch band who may or may not bring the in 'very' in the 'sexual' -- it's The Very Sexuals. I had the pleasure of having a Q and A with The Very Sexuals...
Fresh from the Post: Louis Campos
I came across Louis when he suggested getting an interview he did with The Radio Dept. up on the site. Unfortunately my slow email-replying habits got to me and CaVaCool snatched his interview up first. Though, we unfortunately missed out on a brilliant...

Fresh from the Post : Case by Case
Tuesday is new music day again, and this time it comes in the form of electropop beats by way of LA based artist Case by Case. I have a soft spot when it comes to solo artists who are hands on with their craft, since this site itself is sort of my own one man show....
