Lissie | Yours Truly

Wavves

Watch Nathan and his new band-mates recall the hard work that went into their new album "King of the Beach," and witness the first live performance of the album's title track at Origami Vinyl in Silverlake.

Watch
Freddie Gibbs & Pill 3:16

Watch Freddie Gibbs and Pill double up on some of that gritty, dirt under the nails, bricks in the trunk, don’t visit us at home hip-hop that hark ens back to a time when it still felt good to be a gangsta.

Watch
Active Child

You'll want to witness the otherworldly falsetto and harp picking of Active Child for yourself because if someone tried to tell you that people could sing and play like this, you wouldn’t believe them.

Watch
Tame Impala

The awesome Aussies of Tame Impala take their spaced-out psych rock to the sun-soaked woods of Santa Cruz for a heady performance of "Solitude is Bliss" and "Why Don't You Make Up Your Mind"

Watch
Delta Spirit

Head up Highway 101 to Prairie Sun Studios for a candid look at The Delta Spirit knee-deep into the making of their new album "History From Below"

Watch
Toro y Moi

In less than 3 hours, Toro y Moi recorded piano, drums, bass, guitar, rhodes, and vocals (in that order) for this live re-make of “You Hid,” tracking each instrument only once and rarely asking for a playback of what was just recorded. It’s one of those sessions you warn yourself not to forget.

Watch
Quadron

Like Lykke Li? How bout Little Dragon? If you’re a yes, prepare to fall fast for Danish duo, Quadron, and this vivid version of the slow-burning ballad "Herfra Hvor Vi Står"

yours truly, Lissie

Nate & Shelley caught up with Lissie & Co. in the poster-packed upstairs lounge of The Fillmore to film the BRAND NEW SONG “In Sleep,” from her forthcoming Fat Possum debut. She then graciously took part in a brand new YT tradition by putting pen to paper and writing a letter to her loved ones (which you can read below, along with a video of “Little Lovin’” after the jump).

special thanks to Some Velvet Blog, Daytrotter, MOKB, and The Fader for introducing us to Lissie’s Music and Amanda for setting up the shoot.
