Frankie Rose - Night Swim Video

As we reported a few weeks ago, Frankie Rose's Interstellar album is really tremendous. Here's another great video for the track Night Swim!

Frankie Rose - Gospel/Grace Video

The Vivian Girls were a force to be reckoned with as a group. Individually, they seem intent on conquering the world. Each has their own amazing projects, but none more lovely and graceful than Frankie Rose's Interstellar which is officially being released tomorrow, Feb 21st on Slumberland Records. Check out the great video Gospel/Grace and be sure to check out the title track on Soundcloud. This record is a must have for even the most casual fans of indie pop.
