One day I was poking around MySpace looking for good music (so 2005) and I found Fort Wife on Avi Buffalo's friend's list. I fell in love instantly: Fort Wife's songs were sweet and gentle (like pillows!), but not simperingly sweet, and they're especially good for daydreaming.

​Visit MattCosta.com right now for your chance to download new song, "Permanent Vacation,"  from the Huntington Beach Brushfire artist. But don't think you don't have to put (a little) work into it--by either posting on Facebook, tweeting or joining the Costa mailing list, you can get the track for totally free.

While it's definitely a deviation from the usual ultra pleasant Costa M.O. we're all used to--sunshine, Astairs, roses, et al--the track may just be a pleasant surprise for you fans out there waiting for fresh material. Hope you like the Doors. And reverb.

The Colourist - 04 Yes Yes.mp3

​
The Colourist, made up of Kollin Johannsen (bass), Justin Wagner (keys), Adam Castilla (guitar), and Maya Tuttle (drums), describe their music as "majestic jungle rock." If that translates to eclectic harmonies, dance-y pop and each member playing multiple instruments at live shows, then we concur.

Hear it for yourself: "Yes Yes" is off the Colourist's current EP and was recently featured in the Keeping Up with the Kardashians wedding special. Tuttle says everyone in the band writes lyrics and music for their songs; in this case, Castilla wrote the lyrics for "Yes Yes."More >>
