Video: "Miss Elephant's Gerald" - The Pop Ups

I am not a huge Halloween fan, and so I'll be upfront and say that I'm not gonna feature too many Halloween-related tracks here.  (At least, I'm sayin' that now.)  So when I say that the new "Halloween" track from puppet/kindie (kindie/puppet?) band The Pop Ups, "Miss Elephant's Gerald," isn't very Halloween-y, that's actually a good thing from my perspective.

It does swing, however.

(Below the video is a Bandcamp widget from which you can purchase the track -- also available on iTunes.)

Video: "Dance Like a Monster" - Play Date

Halloween is more than a month away, but I guess it's time to start thinking about the holiday. (If, unlike me, you're a big fan of it.)

Play Date certainly are, as they've just released their first video from their forthcoming debut Imagination, the seasonally appropriate "Dance Like a Monster."  It's kinda of a combination of public-access TV, It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!, and the Unfrozen Caveman sketches from Saturday Night Live.  (With a small amount of "Danger, Will Robinson!" thrown into the mix.)  Pretty sure this'll be a hit with the kids.
