Projections are rad, and so is this band from Florida called Holiday Shores. Andy Ralph got me hooked on these dudes, and this song in particular I can't stop playing. Check out the video for Phones Don't Feud below and then grab their debut album, cause it's real good.

Writer is heading back to Austin's South By Southwest festival this week and they're bringing a bunch of San Diego talent with them. For starters, they booked shows to Austin and back with Tape Deck Mountain using the above press photo, shot by Andrew Burns. They will be selling a new EP on the tour that features a remix by Jamuel Saxon and artwork by Lindsay Preston, screen-printed in the Sezio garage.
Secondly, we are proud to announce that Brad Kester's music video for Four Letters was accepted into the Film Festival portion of SXSW and will premiere in a program of other music videos for random bands like Grizzly Bear and Passion Pit. Destin Daniel Cretton has cinematography credits on the video as well as San Diego's finest barefoot skiier, Mike Gerstein. The program will play three times during the festival and more information can be found here.
Good job San Diego. Turns out we're gonna be okay even without LaDainian Tomlinson.
Writer & Tape Deck Mountain play Tin Can Ale House tomorrow, Thursday March 11th to start their venture east. Come see them off and pick up the new EP, then check back for updates from their travels over the next two weeks. You can also find tour dates and the new songs on Writer's MySpace.

I picked up the Blessa single from Toro y Moi the other week off iTunes, and haven't stopped listening to both tracks. South Carolinian chiller Chaz Bundick is the man behind the hazy summer jams, and he's heading to The Loft this weekend, en route to SXSW.
Toro y Moi - '109'
The first person to email info@sezio.org and tell us how Toro y Moi is connected to our March 25th show at Sushi Art (other than all of the bands being hyped by Pitchfork) wins a pair of tickets to the March 13th show at UCSD's Loft with The Ruby Suns.
* This contest has been won by Keegan Fong. Both hailing from South Carolina, Chaz Bundick is good friends with Ernest Greene from Washed Out. Tickets for the show can still be purchased at The Loft's website.

Get your bicycles tuned up because this weekend looks like it will be the first sunny one we've had here in San Diego for awhile. (Yes I check the weather report every Monday, it gives me something to look forward to). With the time changing as well this weekend, I got my mind geared towards my Summer body and new music to move to. If you haven't heard of the three Irish lads that make up Two Door Cinema Club yet, now's the time. How good will "I Can Talk" be to race around to??
