Our old friend Richard brings us his latest beat-infused confection, taking the bell-clanging tart-pop of Elk City’s “Cherries In The Snow” and throwing it through his deep-Pocket synths ‘n’ beats machine.

Meanwhile, Elk City’s New Believers is available via Friendly Fire and have a CD release show at Joe’s Pub in NYC on 6/27. And for bonus consumption, take the jump for their “Cherries” vid.

I’m debating whether or not to go to the Joe’s Pub show.
yes, I have seen Elk City a couple of times, Ray the drummer produced my first band’s demo. they are great, Sean Eden is an awesome guitarist, and Renee is a cute stage presence with a super voice. they are awesome.
