405 Artist picks // Parakeet interview
We caught up with one of our favourite UK bands of 2012 for a quick ‘Artist Picks’ style grilling…
RECOMMENDED READING. Parakeet already have an album that is being mixed! Exciting. They also name check Raymond Carver (and Daniel), Paris, Texas, ancient Japanese toys, and broccoli, amongst other generally rad things.

Yuck interview
“During the recording of our album, we’d go to Max’s and record for a bit. Then we’d smoke, and then get into bed and spoon each other. Do you know what spooning is? Normally you do it after sex, but we’d do it after recording. And then we’d watch a film and get a bottle of wine, and then Max would drive me home” -Daniel Blumburg and Max Bloom
“The Wall” live on a rooftop for Billboard Tastemakers session.
