The Morning Benders - Excuses
the morning benders :: excuses
So i'm not gonna lie, the music guru of our office was listening/watching this clip on his computer and my gut completley dropped at the sound of it...its so beautiful and it's as amazing to watch it all live. I checked out the video myself and am looking more into these guys. I'd love to hear more about them from some fans reading this post!! So because i'm not even going to pretend i know the background of these guys, I will credit gorillavsbear.net for the following:
Featuring a song from the Morning Benders' forthcoming LP, Big Echo (which was co-produced by Grizzly Bear's Chris Taylor). "Excuses" is the album's brilliant opening track, and this soaring "Wall of Sound" performance is enhanced by the "Big Echo Orchestra," which includes Bay Area luminaries Christopher Owens of Girls, John Vanderslice, and many more. Shout out to Phil Spector:
ENJOY!!!!! its SO BEAUTIFUL! (i swapped out to a youtube video that is shaky visually, but sound is good. the vimeo video was too shaky!)
