Another day, another Coachella bound artist. Here is another band that I had never heard of prior to the lineup being announced, but I may be falling for them. They are One EskimO, a four piece 0ut of London.
This song is off of their self-titled debut. Seemed perfect for a Sunday morning.

See, this is why I plan my entire year around Coachella every year. The sort of acts they book to play the festival are the type that I would NEVER have a chance to see otherwise. Acts like
Gil Scott-Heron. Click the link there if you aren't familiar with the man or his art. To say he had an influence over hip hop and hip hop culture would be massively understating the facts. I can't wait for this set.
