This new track from Jenn Wasner of Wye Oak and her new side project Flock of Dimes almost makes up for the fact that Wye Oak is covering Dinosaur Jr on May 22nd—and it’s sold out.

The idea of Ben Folds covering Ke$ha may not sound like a good idea, but think about it. Anybody doing Ke$ha is better than her, right? This case especially.

You’re gonna love this new Washed Out until I lodge this in your head: Moby, Enya, and Caribou havin’ a baby. That is all.

The Black Keys warm up to a fairly restrained take on Buddy Holly. The upcoming tribute LP includes My Morning Jacket, Jenny O., Lou Reed, Modest Mouse, She & Him, and more.

If you like your gals sun-drenched, sugar-coated, and covered in a light layer of fuzz (really, who doesn’t), Seapony is here.
