Hindsight being 20/20 and all that, it would have been a smart idea to have set out today with some sort of game plan. Alas, "smart" doesn't often figure much into my constitution. Today ended up being a rewarding yet frustrating (see my second recap later today), proving that not all is sunshine and smiles at SXSW. I also came to the realization that SXSW is a lot closer in spirit to Mardi-Gra...

Human Highway is the collaboration between Islands' Nick Thorburn and Royal City-associated songwriter and solo artist Jim Guthrie. Their debut Moody Motorcycle is out next week. A little while ago we posted about two of the album tracks, hushed toe-tapper "The Sound" and HH's foray into '50s/'60s prom dancing, "Sleep Talking."

While out on tour together, and while hanging out in their hotel room one night, the two started talking about writing and recording something together. They wrote the song My Beach in the hotel room that evening. They reconvene...

Nick Thorburn is a busy guy. Between Islands and Human Highway, it's unclear how he finds the time to keep up those fashionable haircuts. We recently reported on HH's first live shows . Now Islands, who have a six-song Live Session available at iTunes, are also on the road. The iTunes EP includes Arm's Way tracks ("The Arm," "Pieces Of You," "Creeper," and a "revised" "J'aime Vous Voir Quitter"...

Human Highway, the duo of Islands' Nick Thorburn and jingle master Jim Guthrie, played their first shows ever at Cake Shop on Monday and a show at Joe's Pub last night. Both were co-headliners with Paul Simon's son Harper Simon (sorry to name drop your dad, Harper) with Lavender Diamond's Becky Stark opening. If you haven't taken a listen to Human Highway's debut album, Moody Motorcycle, it's s...
