imperfect fifth
fakelife, fall behind
Who else popped their head out of their hole long enough to realize that it's already Memorial Day Weekend? Yup. It totally is. And we're looking forward to "treading water" in a rainy, sloppy midwest indoors... but not without an ambiance. And who better to provide...

Cancelled Plans Continued, Night II was one of our favorite livestream events. Practice brought some amazing key work to the lineup, and we're very excited to share the replay with you. Dive into it for some ambiance tonight! Keep up with Practice here.
trace of lime | walkin’ music
This playlist is all about sounds that make you want to walk with some pep in your step. We love syncopation, funky bass and powerful drums and try to capture that same energy in our own music. Many of these songs are from artists that have influenced us throughout...
til morning @ cancelled plans continued | night ii
Brothers Devin and Patrick Parker of Til Morning were incredible enough to play for us during Night 2 of our Cancelled Plans Continued on May 14th. We love the plants, and know that Devin is working on some gardening right now as well as some fun new music stuff...
extra medium pony @ cancelled plans continued | night ii
We were blessed with the presence of live music from Extra Medium Pony during night 2 of our Cancelled Plans Continued. The bauble lights threw an ambiance unlike any other. Donate directly to Extra Medium Pony through their Paypal with...
blake english, spiders make great poets
Did you happen to know that Spiders Make Great Poets? That's the truth, at least, that Blake English will stick to when asked, since that also happens to be the title of his new 5-track EP. Beginning with an otherworldly soundscape, "Sad Girls Dance Party" bursts into...
michael vickers, “dead and buried”
In the lead up to his new 4 track EP, Michael Vickers is releasing his new music slowly, tragically slowly, if you ask us. With new track "Dead and Buried," there is an energy we haven't felt in a few weeks, and the track leaves us wanting more. With Vickers'...
our favorite new tracks of || may 2020
Have you been taking your time with the silence lately? Really analyzing every aspect of a sense? We suggest trying on all of this gorgeous, new music for size from this month of social distancing, perhaps in a way that allows you no distractions. (Amidst the bevy of...
reggie becton, “rainin’ in la”
As though there could be anything better than the buttery vocals of Reggie Becton on really any track - let alone his 90s-inspired "Rainin' in LA" released recently - he has just released the official music video for his latest single "Rainin' in LA," and the way it...
zebedee @ cancelled plans continued | night i

the next great american novelist @ cancelled plans continued | night i
We are floored by the talent The Next Great American Novelist brought to the camera on Thursday night. What do you think? (Tip them here!)
jessie hyde, “charity”
French songstress Jessie Hyde brings a certain sense of charm to her work. This rings true for her latest track "Charity," a smooth as honey track, quirkily specific and wonderfully darling. Lyrics like "look at the sign on the wall / this ain't a fuckin' charity"...
ili, “breath”
We've been craving a pop gem to play on repeat during our weekends. Why? Because the weekends are feeling less like weekends... we need to reinstate the party mentality so that we can transition back into our post-apocalyptic every day eventually. (Very far down the...
jenny march @ cancelled plans continued | night i
Night 1 of Cancelled Plans Continued was far more than we could have ever dreamed of. (Seriously, guys, you're setting us up for failure here.) Our audience enjoyed Jenny March so much at Cancelled Plans Music Festival 2020, that they demanded an encore. So, back by...
merritt gibson, “breaking down”
If you're looking for a song to absolutely lose your shit to, "Breaking Down" by Merritt Gibson is going to be the tearjerker of the week, if not the entire month. We're hoping spring showers happen for us to be able to enjoy this one in its most raw form, but either...
ocean alley, “hot chicken”
Recently, Ocean Alley premiered the music video for their track "Hot Chicken". Needless to say, we're huge fans. Directed, animated, and edited by Michael Askew, the video is absolutely entrancing, changing at musical cues to display different textures and landscapes,...
broken bells, “good luck”
Broken Bells are tugging at our heartstrings in the new video for "Good Luck", which is enveloped in passing glances at the mood of current times. As we contemplate the depth of the world's collective depression, we consider "sunrise" and movement toward something...
whitacre @ cancelled plans music festival 2020
On April 17, we hosted one of the most magnificent 9 hour marathons of live music practically ever. (That's a bold claim, but challenge us!) Whitacre performed, people clapped from their sofas and beds, and this just proves we have to have an extended Whitacre tour...
