  • Grim Streaker
     
    Grim Streaker is a musical force to be reckoned with. Full speed ahead, all systems go, with the power of a jet engine flying upside down. You get the picture. This is unabashedly bashing, but tuneful, punk rock for modern lovers, form a Brooklyn band full of some highly talented usual suspects from the scene… grab your board and get out there. Check out this blistering jam from when they crash landed at Serious Business Music in DUMBO, Brooklyn.
     
    Girl Minority is available now on cassette.

  • pronoun
    Alyse Vellturo is the heart and soul of this Brooklyn synth/guitar indie pop band. Catchy melodies, a bit of punkish pop sensibility, and totally relatable lyrics make everything about pronoun earworm-prone, as evidenced by this session, when the band stopped by Serious Business Music in DUMBO, Brooklyn.

    Sara Savery is a Danish singer based in Brooklyn, known as a vocalist and instrumentalist from Blue Foundation, People Press Play, and Ghost Society. With her new project, Drop The Gun, she takes her production skills to seriously smooth and groovy depths, heading further into the atmospheric electronic pop territory that her previous work only hinted at. There are things happening with Drop The Gun that make it feel like just the beginning of a long ride with much more to come. Check out this intimate session, recorded live at Serious Business Music in DUMBO, Brooklyn.
    Drop The Gun’s debut, self-titled EP is available now.

  • Oak House
    Oak House is an indie/psych-rock trio from  Athens, Georgia -- or guitarist Gresham Cash, drummer Wes Gregory and bassist Connor Sabula. With huge, grungy dynamics and epic choruses, the band plays with a ton of passion. This is definitely guitar rock, and the classic trio formation feels brand new when a band like this comes along to freshen it up. The guys dropped by Serious Business Music in DUMBO, Brooklyn, to show us how it’s done.
    Hot or Mood, the sophomore LP from Oak House, is available now.

  • Charly Bliss
    Charly Bliss is one of those bands that immediately brings to mind a slew of favorites, especially for those of us who had their musical awakening in the 90s. Reminiscent of the awesomely fuzzy, poppy goodness of Veruca Salt, The Breeders, That Dog, and Letters To Cleo, the band proudly identifies their genre as “bubblegrunge” (was that a word back then? It’s likely, but either way it’s super appropriate for them right here and now) and does a killer job of nailing that vibe and improving upon it, updating the sound and look for the 2010s while still conveying that feeling of throwing a party in your teenage bedroom. Eve, Spencer, Sam, and Dan have a really great thing going on, and they stopped by Serious Business Music in DUMBO, Brooklyn, for this session.
    Guppy by Charly Bliss is available now from Barsuk Records.
