TV Girl :: Benny & The Jetts EP

TV Girl—the San Diego duo that crafted a delectable pop treat over Todd Rundgren's "Hello, It's Me," and then proceeded to get into a bit of hot water over it—continue to blur copyright lines with a new EP titled Benny and The Jetts, after the Elton John classic. Samples abound in the new four-track EP, but so do the blissful and ear-pleasing pop hooks that make standouts like "Baby You Were There" a welcome addition to any summer playlist.

Download the EP here. Grab the band's previous releases via Bandcamp.

  4. Absolutely no mention of Bob Dylan's 'Sign on the Window' in the post. Back to music school for Matt Carr I think.

  5. Thank you! That seriously bugged me when I posted this back in July. I knew "Benny and The Jets" was sampling a Dylan song, but I just could not place which one. 'New Morning' is an absolute favorite of mine, so I should have recognized "Sign On The Window."

    Back to music school, indeed...
