  1. WATCH THIS: Butcher the Bar – “Alpha Street West”

    October 15, 2011 by Steph

    It’s no surprise that Manchester UK’s Butcher the Bar (aka Joel Nicholson) will soon be heading out on a European tour with Death Cab for Cutie. The indie pop folk instrumentation with a whispy tenor voice and strong clucking percussion is like Death Cab crossed with Kevin Devine on Prozac. What might surprise you is that Nicholson manages not to burst out laughing in this “gravity-defying” video, where he encounters all sorts of flying objects. He does crack a smile a few times though. And so will you at this fun video.

    “Alpha Street West,” is taken from Nicholson’s newest Morr Music release, For Each A Future Tethered.
