Dent May - "Fun" / "Wedding Day" 7"

I've slept on Dent May for a while now, but after watching this stellar acoustic performance of "That Feeling" (man, what a great bass line!), I'm 100% on this Mississippi cat's bandwagon. May's newest release is a 7" off Paw Tracks. "Fun" may be the A-side, but it's the sweet retro cheese of the B-side "Wedding Day" that has me hitting play over and over again.

Pre-order the 7", due out September 13th, via Insound.

Dent May & His Magnificent Ukulele - "You Can't Force A Dance Party"

At times recalling Jens Lekman and others Ray Davies and Stephen Merritt, the talented and highly literate ukulele-wielding Dent May is due to make a splash with his dead-pan delivered delectable pop debut The Good Feeling Music of Dent May and his Magnificent Ukulele. Just feast your ears on "You Can't Force A Dance Party" which might as well be the sequel to fellow dead-pan wunderkind Jonathan Richman's "Parties In The USA."
