The Antlers and The xx are two bands you can do a lot of vibing out to. Together, they make it an unmanageable amount of vibyness. The studio cover of The xx’s “VCR” (best) comes from The Antlers’ (together) EP, out November 22 via Frenchkiss. The xx, meanwhile, cannot release new music soon enough. MP3 [...]

Portland’s Nick Principe, AKA Port St. Willow recently performed a private studio concert in Philadelphia for Weathervane Music with the help of childhood friend and Antlers frontman, Peter Silberman (who produced the lovely “Stay Calm” from Port St. Willow’s latest EP). “Calm”, above, is a ‘new/unreleased’ song with an appropriate title that goes nicely with [...]

The Antlers brought a stellar performance of Burst Apart’s “Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out” to Leno, and Peter Silberman brought in some Thom Yorke head shakes with the Radiohead influence. (AP).

Refreshed the NPR SXSW page a few times checking for this one. The Antlers, who recently announced the release of their upcoming LP, Burst Apart (due in May), performed the entire album live at NPR’s SXSW show at The Parish in Austin today. About to stream this myself, and if its *anything* like 2009’s Hospice, [...]

Peter Silberman of The Antlers recently shared a new track he produced via the latest Shaking Through episode about his childhood friend, Nick Principe, AKA Port St. Willow. The video covers the writing and recording process for “Stay Even”, which is a great appetizer for the absolutely gorgeous finished product that not [...]

The only thing better than a free Saturday night event at The Getty (also free parking after 5pm if you have one of those automobiles) is a free Saturday night event at The Getty plus one buzzband.
Brooklyn’s The Antlers headlined this weekend’s outdoor, twilight show with an hour long set of their somber, ambient distortion [...]
