Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
The word "experimental," when self-applied by indie rock acts, usually means painfully slow, and, quite probably, dreary. Not Minnesota outfit Cloud Cult, which plays Rhythm Room Sunday with Say Hi (To Your Mom) and Ice Palace. They've got all the buoyancy of poppier indie acts, and more exotic instrumentation than they could dream of hauling around on tour. Check out "Everybody Here Is A Cloud" off Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-partying Through
Tornadoes.
You can also check out this Mp3 from Seattle's Say Hi, one of the better lo-fi indie acts out there right now. Gotta love that brassy opening.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
