We love Buffalo and music. Probably some other stuff too. Link in bio on how to get a hold of us.

Our Album of the Week comes from Brendan Lake and his new album 'Atlantis.' Its full of '60s Beach Boys-inspired melodies with candid lyrics exploring addiction, recovery, and growing older that fans of Kurt Vile or Mac DeMarco would appreciate. https://t.co/zvPBl8DM2B

Piercing, wash-of-sound shoegaze Fredonia-based outfit, Ordinary Feeling, just dropped their self-titled six-song self-titled EP. It's a promising start to this quartet's bright future, and it's our Album of the Week!

Fresh off @NBCTheVoice , Buffalo's Letter to Elise just dropped 'the five stages of grief,' a ten-song razor-sharp indie-pop blitz with '80s synth splash, earworm hooks, and Killers-level radio rock ambition. It's our Album of the Week!

Buffalo indie-folk outfit The Rainlamps have a new single off their forthcoming album 'Down In the Bushes.' Their track "You Wrote My Favorite Song" has comparisons to The Decemberists, Pavement, and Belle and Sebastian. Check it out!

Fueled by nostalgic Y2K pop-rap influences and sharp modern production, Buffalo's DON’T WATCH TV craft a vibrant, genre-blending introduction that makes a compelling case for WNY's next boy band to follow. '99 Degrees' is our Album of the Week.

One of Buffalo’s busiest songwriters, Jake Smolinski, is back with his chaotic project Raybees and their sub-six-minute, pseudo-fuzzy freakout 'Seed Funding from the Federal Government.' It’s our Album of the Week.

Ithaca-based post-punk/emo outfit Eighteen Hundred and Froze to Death released 'Earthquake Lights,' a powerhouse nine-song record with nods to At The Drive-In, Cursive, and Shiner. 'Earthquake Lights' is our Album of the Week.

Buffalo's @Tough_Old_Bird keeps their hot streak rolling with "Come Back, Come Back." It's a slow-burning slice of modern indie-folk featuring beautiful harmonies and classic tremolo guitar.

Modular synths, acoustic guitars, and a weekend isolated in rural WNY is the recipe for 'Camp Club,' the brand-new EP from Urge Surfer (Jordan Maelyn Smith & Chelsea O’Donnell of Stress Dolls).

Our latest Album of the Week is 'little white house (on a hill),' the impressive debut record from Buffalo’s own Orange Dog Club. It's a razor-sharp collection of eight songs that Julian Casablancas probably wishes he wrote.

Nearly two decades in, Buffalo indie stalwarts @orphans_music [Roger Bryan and the Orphans] still rip. Stream their pedal-drenched new track "Concrete" below ahead of their upcoming album, 'Open Chord Dispatch.'

.@buffablog likes the new LP from Dren McDonald. #VoxPterous "sits at the intersection of contemporary classical and mood music… for fans of Steve Reich, Ed O’Brien, and Meredith Monk." At radio now.

Buffalo's Jerry Kingsman and his Model Horses just dropped Year of the Horse,' and it’s a nine-track journey running the gamut between sweaty garage rock, salty surf tones, and full-on performance art freakouts. It's our Album of the Week.

Anchored by a decade of prolific songwriting and their landmark 100th track, Buffalo indie rock staple Jesse James returns to their roots with 'cloudspotting,' a masterclass in lo-fi nostalgia from Jesse & The Spirit. It's our Album of the Week.
