Here We Go Magic ~ “Fangela”views: 886This video is pretty rad. The new video from Here We Go Magic was made by filmaker Snejina Latev, who also made the video for “Tunnelvision”. The video is made up of charcoal animations, sculptural elements, super-8 footage, stop motion, and light effects.
Fronted by critical darling of the Seattle music scene Luke Temple, Brooklyn based Here We Go Magic's eponymously titled album is filled with facile playing, straight-forward melodies and simple yet redolent lyrics all of which culminate in a very solid and eclectic output that eases and rolls out of the hi-fi.Read the full review at What's On The Hi-Fi! www.whatsonthehifi.com
Celebrated music critic Lester Bangs said, "The first mistake of art is to assume that it's serious." While Brooklyn, New York singer/songwriter Luke Temple may imbue his craft with serious emotions and tone, he doesn't make that mistake: his most recent project Here We Go Magic is colored with doses of psychedelic folk, bubblegum pop, and fistfuls of fairy dust. Recorded in just two months on ...
Luke Temple and Here We Go Magic have steam rolled me, and I’m guessing quite a few of you too. They recently premiered a new song live on WOXY called “Surprise” (thanks to GvB). This track reminds me of 60s era Dylan and Buffalo Springfield - similar to the track “Everything’s Big” on their debut [...]
Luke Temple’s foray into abstract indie pop as Here We Go Magic is notable not just for the blinding pop vignettes that stud the album, but the numerous and frankly superfluous excursions into white noise pointlessness. It’s the only album that I’ve heard this year that contains as much silence as this blog is accustomed to relaxing into (sorry about that chaps). Unfortunately, if we’re

I’m going to get “Bon Iver-ed” by this band, I just know it. Let me explain. When the clever recluse (aka Justin Vernon) wandered out of his log cabin and onto the indie scene, I was asked to give his album a listen and subsequently review it. As an indie reviewer, a lot of what [...]
Indie folk artist Luke Temple is unveiling his third album, recorded under the moniker Here We Go Magic, tomorrow, February 24th. The record marks a dramatic departure from Temple's previous folk sound into a darker, more experimental realm of pop music. According to his bio, he recorded the album by himself in his Brooklyn home with analog synths and a cassette 4 track which gives a warm, wo...

I have been having trouble discovering new bands that I want to listen to lately. Thankfully I came across the band Here We Go Magic the other day. From start to finish, their self-titled album is solid. We like the way the name sounds so we set it [...]

(click to enlarge)After missing their show at the Mohawk on Wednesday because I flubbed the set time, I was glad to catch Here We Go Magic at Side Bar on Friday afternoon. They were one of just a handful of bands that I had made a point to go see (see also: Harlem Shakes, Wavves, Grizzly Bear), and Side Bar provided the perfect atmosphere for the band's weirdo psych folk.The place was packed w...
