Turn Down For What

I just can't get enough of the DJ Snake & Lil Jon "Turn Down For What" video. It's bizarre, unexpected, and totally hilarious and I highly recommend watching it...

Echocell "Babylon" Music Video

If you've followed my blog for a bit then you know how much I love the clothing line, Bel Kazan.  The designer of that line, and my good friend Belinda Kazanci, is also the lead singer of a band called Echocell.  I've had the pleasure of seeing them perform live and I am a huge fan!  Recently, they released a video for their new single, "Babylon."  Not only do I love the song, BUT I'm obsessed with the incredible wardrobe!

Here are a few still shots of the unique styling and amazing headdresses.  (Scroll down all the way to hear the song and see the video.)

And here is the final video, enjoy!

Behind The Scenes: Passion Pit "Carried Away" Featuring Michael Angelakos and Sophia Bush

A few weeks ago I got to take some Behind The Scenes / Still Photography for the music video of "Carried Away" by Passion Pit! It was such a treat to take pictures of the gorgeous Sophia Bush and the handsome Michael Angelakos.  Take a look at a few of my favorite shots from set which are posted below....  And scroll all the way down to see the video (which is the cutest video ever, you MUST watch it, I promise you'll love it!)

Ladies, how cute is he?

The beautiful Sophia Bush...

On the run...

Action shot...

Michael messing around between takes...

Michael looking like a GQ model...

The red room...

We were going for a Norman Rockwell vibe...

Who can relate?  Or rather, who can't?!

Here's the video!  Watch it, you won't regret it!

Sharon Van Etten

Have you listened to Sharon Van Etten?  Because you should.... Because she's awesome!  Mellow music that the perfect tempo for a cozy fall evening cooking and hanging out by the fire... or at least that's what I do when I'm listening to her.  :)

Cat Power Style

I am loving Cat Power's new album AND I love her style!  Currently she has short, blonde hair BUT I love her look in this picture; the hair, the jacket, the scarf... and her face is just too beautiful!

music: CULTS

Bad Joan has a style crush on Madeline Follin from the band Cults.  BJ went to see Foster The People in concert at the Wiltern Theater the other night and got a nice surprise when Cults opened the show!  The band has a very vintage vibe in both their sound and appearance.  During the show Madeline wore a black eyelet mini dress and mary jane flats... and she definitely rocked!

For more info on the band visit their website HERE!

If you don't already know the band here is a little taste; the video for their song "Abducted." It is definitely a fantastic song but Bad Joan's current favorite song on the album is "You Know What I Mean." So after you're done watching the video go to iTunes (or your favorite music spot) and listen to that song as well!

After the show Bad Joan got to go backstage and hang out. BJ chatted a bit with Madeline about her super long and fantastic hair; her secret is that she rarely cuts it, she only gets very minimal trims. Too bad BJ had just gotten her hair cut earlier that day, she could have used Madeline's advice a little sooner!  Oh well!

What new music are you listening too?
