the interview show: the cliks

 

Lucas Silveira, lead singer of The Cliks, has said, “rock is the best place to be who you are.” Rock has a long tradition of gender exploration from Bowie to Freddie Mercury to 80s metal bands. Lucas himself is one of the most visible transgendered persons (female to male) in the music industry.

That said, the Cliks are a straight up rock band and they have have done a killer cover of Justin Timberlake’s “Cry Me A River.”

FYI: clit + dick = The Cliks!

Cof Cof, pass pass

 

Put this band on your radar! Valencia, Spain’s Cof Cof sound like the perfect party.

Its hard not to draw similarities to Bonde do Role, Yelle, and Hot Chip with their home made esthetic and perfect collision between electronic and organic. Lead singer, Ana Analogica’s Miss Kitten-esq lyrics and accent ain’t so hard on the ears either. 

Purchase more Cof Cof @gmail.com">here or scoop their whole album, “Who Said Party?” for free on their myspace! You’ll wish you had payed for it.

!!! 5 N.Y. concert dates scheduled mid August, myspace for more deets !!!

Get to Know You

NICE
photo c/o dtybywl.

A few of the Winnie crew were/are out at the Pemberton Music Festival (a 3 day camping/music fest. near Whistler, BC) right now- expect to hear all about the party when they return.. .

Moving on. . On sundays (and/or everydays) I like to make hash browns and watch 80′s movies- Enter Cusak’s “Better Off Dead” and the dopest Howard Jones track you’ll ever hear.. well unless you buy the Best of Howard Jones album, which has seven wicked songs.. . On a mildly interesting note, even though this song was the feature of a pivotal montage scene, it did not make it on to the official soundtrack for B.O.D. (abrev. for Better off Dead)… . well TTYL.

Not To Be Confused With

 
For the record this site has nothing to do with: The Wonder Years, Kevin Arnold, Danica McKellar or any of these other Winnie Cooper knockoffs. We are the original. We invented the phrase “Winnie Cooper” which, btw, is not some devious sexual act, it’s a medical term for people who have to be hospitalized from staring at a computer screen for too long. Fact. Don’t believe me? look it up.  The internet never lies.   

 

Definitely not to be confused with this site, www.winniecooper.COM 

or this Australian hip hop band, although we do like their name.
