Good one going down tonight at The Firebird in St. Louis, as Said The Whale hits town as they near the release of their new album, hawaiii (due September 17 via Hidden Pony Records). We're happy to report that it's a fabulous album, with several standouts, including "I Love You," which you can listen to below.

Tickets are still available for the show tonight ($10, w/Royal Teeth, The Sun and The Sea, and Ross Christopher), and you can purchase them here.

Jam of the Day | Royal Teeth - My Donna

Tweet

Louisiana's Royal Teeth haven't been playing music together long, but listening to their EP "Act Naturally," you get the feeling that they've been horsing around since birth. On "My Donna," the sextet's chemistry is undeniable, the harmonies effortless. In fact, it reminds me of the tea parties I would host in the backyard as a kid. I'd wear my prettiest white dress and sip water from a tiny porcelain cup underneath the trees with my best friends: Teddy Ruxpin, a few Little Ponies, and lamb. If I was going to start a band, I'd want them to be in it. And I'd hope our songs sounded like this one.
