New Music

I think the state of the music industry is pretty interesting these days. Big acts like Nine Inch Nails are pretty much telling the big labels to go f%$# themselves (which I love) and acts like Madonna and Shakira are signing with Live Nation for millions of dollars (Shakira= 70 million) to break the monopoly of Ticketmaster. I think all of these things are great. I don't think people really know how musicians are shackled by the business with recoupable costs, back end points etc etc. All which comes out of these already low per unit sale. It's nice to see people fighting back. If the big guys fight back the road will be paved for the little guy.

That all being said I think it's important to support any new music that's out there. So ladies and gentleman I give you Jubilee. With Aaron North at the helm (one of my FAVORITES) these guys are fantastic. I hope they do a North American tour because when they come to Boston I'm going to get my 40 year old ass out to the club.
They've put out an EP and are working on a full length album. Here is the video - if you like the song you can go to their myspace and purchase the tracks. The money goes directly to them and I'm sure every single little bit helps. While you are exploring head over to Buddyhead (co-owned by Travis Keller and Aaron North) and check it out - it's a great music site.

Here you go....
