London-based band Tiger Love, made up of brothers Roy, Gigi and Loral, would have you believe that their new video for "Summer Rain" was shot on VHS tape in 1996.

For the video, Levy traveled all the way to Kagbeni, Nepal to capture photos of kids playing and dancing amongst the......read more
With her second LP, Tender New Signs, due next month, Tamaryn has released an appropriately hazy, color-saturated video for the very dreamy "Heavenly Bodies." In the vid, the New Zealand-born, San Francisco-based singer finds herself in some sort of hotel room flooded with projected visuals, from ocean seascapes to forest landscapes.
