    1. News : PREMIERE – Lo’ There Do I See My Brother “Twenty Three”

      Posted on in News

      If you’ve followed us for a while, chances are you’ve heard us raving about Tacoma post-rock powerhouse Lo’ There Do I See My Brother (or LTDISMB, for short…er). This talented collective released a towering masterpiece early in 2015 titled Northern Shore, and the gang has played a string of shows in support of the new album. We are honored to be hosting the premiere of a new music video for “Twenty Three”, the aching fifth (and probably my favorite) track off Northern Shore that bisects the album with its tender strummings and Adam Wolbert’s gentle vocal work. Take a watch or three below, and catch LTDISMB next week at the 2015 Vans Warped Tour in Auburn!
