Countdown to Coachella: Cut Copy
There isn’t a bigger music event in California than the Coachella Music and Arts Festival. This year’s Coachella event draws big interest from music lovers as it packs some of the biggest names in music headlining the show: Kings of Leon, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, and Kanye West. Other bands and artists set to perform include Interpol, Mumford & Sons, The National, and Eliza Doolittle (I just had to) among others.
You might not know every band or artist playing, so everyday until Coachella (April 15-17), we will be bringing music from one band/artist who will be performing at Coachella. There are 85 days left until Coachella and at least one bad/artist will be covered each day.
For our first Countdown to Coachella post, we have Cut Copy:
Cut Copy is an electro-pop band from Australia. They have a very dance-able synthpop feel to their music which resonates throughout their first two albums. They like to sample and remix other bands and one of my favorites is a remix of Mercy Arms’ “Kept Low.” Check out their track titled “Take Me Over” from their forthcoming third album, Zonoscope, which is due out on February 8. Also, check out “Kept Low,” and “Hearts on Fire” after the first listen–I’m sure you’ll like.
