According to his blog former Budapest frontman John Garrison is currently writing songs with Danish singer/songwriter Mads Langer. Budapest (?) you might ask? Aside being the capital of Hungary, Budapest was a British band that in the early 00’s released a fabulous single called Is This The Best It Gets? and a pretty decent album (though it didn’t fully meet my expectations) named Too Blind To Hear. In case you’re not familiar with Mads Langer either, he burst onto to the Danish music scene in 2005 with the beautiful and emotional debut single The Breaking News, which (I believe) was written as a response to the 7 July 2005 London Bombings. And this year his cover of the Olive track You’re Not Alone has been getting massive airplay in Denmark. Anyway; it should be interesting to see and hear what comes out of this rather intriguing collaboration!

Shorties...
Too tired to write anything serious today. As if I ever post anything remotely serious!
That The Radio Dept. concert I mentioned yesterday has yet to be officially announced by either band or venue. Logically no ticket information is available.
Tobias of Blue Foundation explains why Blue Foundation is called...well...Blue Foundation.
+ Stuck In A Hard Place (Reworked)
Still hoping that Copenhagen Popfest will announce the one band sorely missing from the otherwise intriguing line-up; Days!
+ Downhill
Play People offers a 5-track compilation entitled Better Things as a free download via Bandcamp. This is catchy and lovely pop music with a capital P!
+ Oh What A Life...
The fortunate ones attending SXSW should not miss the opportunity to see Kashmir! As well as some of the other interesting Danish names, who'll be playing, like Spleen United, Choir of Young Believers and The Kissaway Trail.
+ Surfing the warm industry
Another Dane performing will be singer-songwriter Mads Langer (though listed as being from London), whose cover of the Olive track You're Not Alone has been getting massive airplay on Danish Radio recently.

Why not grab Happy Hollows' pretty fine cover of Under The Milky Way over at You Ain't No Picasso?
