We found our way to the Hilton rooftop pool (life is sooo hard) in downtown Austin during South by Southwest for this picturesque interview with “magma pop” sensation, Samsaya. This girl is seriously the bomb. Before SXSW, I was totally obsessed with her music (everyone should get after her track “Stereotype”), and now I’m totally…

It’s no secret that we at Vinyl have love for Blondfire. It all started at South by Southwest 2013 when we saw them play a show at The Belmont with Sirah, Charli XCX, Icona Pop, Rockie Fresh, Action Bronson and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (um…best lineup ever?). Since then, we’ve been hooked. We sat down…
Sharon Van Etten is sharing her new video for “Taking Chances,” the first single off Are We There, out May 27th on Jagjaguwar. Inspired by Agnès Varda and her 1962 film, Cleo from 5 to 7, the video was written, shot and directed by Michael Palmieri. But if a video inspired by a movie you’ve probably never seen isn’t enough to interest you, read…
Reunited, and it feels so badass! You know it’s going to be a good SXSW when your first interview is a follow-up with pop princess Charli XCX. You may remember her from our video interview last year. OR you may know her from her awesome collaborations with artists like Icona Pop and Iggy Azalea (no, but…

Sitting in The World Famous in downtown Athens on my lunch break (that’s a lot of prepositions), talking to Yip Deceiver about their current tour and all the stuff you talk about during interviews, I hold back from mentioning all of the times I’ve seen and recognized them around town (hi, I’m a creep). Though they’re a…
Concord America – not only the “best band name ever” but also the coolest dudes ever. If you’re anywhere around Atlanta, you may know them from their killer performance at The Stuffing (they were personally asked to play the Manchester Orchestra-hosted event by Andy Hull himself…no big deal). Or if you’re a long-time Vinyl Mag…
I have a Christmas present for everyone. By now, if you’re a regular Vinyl Mag reader, you know we have a pretty big thing for Sirah. We’ve already interviewed her TWICE in 2013 (it’s not our fault she’s so dang awesome…not to mention dang interesting), and now here’s our third. Watch us get to know…
