Big Science has been hard at work on their upcoming full length album, to be released this fall, since returning from a successful appearance at SXSW. The band has released the first single from the album and it is called "Loose Change Century". It's got a little early U2 vibe, and it is quite enjoyable.

Big Science will be performing at Subt on May 6th with Color Radio and An Aesthetic Anaesthetic.

Daniel Knox is an old soul in a modern world, and on Evryman For Himself we hold he is adapting and adjusting to the world around him. These are saloon songs, these are piano ballads in their purest form. Knox reminds me of a mix between Randy Newman, Anthony & The Johnsons, and Tom Waits. On Evryman For Himself he takes the listener on a journey through his life and tells us stories of love, loneliness, and scenes that he has observed. He seems to spot the smallest scenes and find the uniqueness. He is a crooner, a commentator, and marvelous storyteller. It is clear through songs like the haunting "Ghostsong", the biting but humorous "...etc...", or the title track "Evryman For Himself" that Knox is a special talent and a truly gifted singer/songwriter.

Evryman For Himself will be released by La Societe Expeditionnairie on May 10th. Daniel Knox will be performing at The Hideout on May 26th.

I don't think Matt Ryd will be dancing like this when he performs at Schubas on May 25th, but this video is so fun to watch.
