As if breaking bands don’t have enough hoops to jump through…
Bonnaroo invited some of their favorite up-and-comers to come by The Hoodie Shop in NYC’s Lower East Side to play some tunes and take the ultimate test — a grilling from mom. Watch Brooklyn’s quirky pop rockers Conveyor perform, rather appropriately, a song called “Mom Talk”. A little kissing up never hurts, right?

Catch Conveyor this Wednesday 11/7 with Freelance Whales and Geographer at Webster Hall. Tickets on sale now!
$2 charity donation from each ticket sold goes to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance NYC Hurricane Relief Effort!

Paper Garden Records is beyond ecstatic to announce the release of the self-titled debut LP from Brooklyn’s CONVEYOR this Summer (July 17, 2012).  Having only teased the world with an EP and a few singles so far, Conveyor has already made a big impression on the blogosphere, earning accolades from Consequence of Sound, We Listen For You, Earmilk, I Guess I’m Floating, Listen Before You Buy, Baeble Music, Yvynyl, and BPM.  After returning from a successful SXSW 2012, Conveyor are getting ready to embark on a summer of tour dates that include the Fringe Festival (Montreal) and NXNE (Toronto) the weekend of June 15th, back to NYC for their record release show at Mercury Lounge on June 28th, and a full national tour in support of the LP that begins the very next day.

We are very proud to welcome Conveyor to our family and we can’t wait to share their music and their songs with you.

About Conveyor

Conveyor is a Brooklyn-based music project spawned by the fated juncture of a wandering tarot of musicians in Gainesville, FL. Was it kismet or perhaps a primordial summon which led these gentlemen purveyors of sound to individually tune in and migrate North to the bustling seductress known as New York City? Their retort is Sun Ray, a debut EP birthed and released in the warm embrace of Spring 2011. Brimming with lucid, homey synths layered over acoustic guitars and harmonious vocals, they channel extraterrestrial bible-thumpers drenched in love, spouting acid-soaked pop unabashed to beam with the simultaneous embrace of life/death realities backed by a polyrhythmic, pulsing backdrop. A decidedly grand task indeed, and following a string of self-released, handmade EPs, they are releasing their debut full-length album in 2012 with Brooklyn’s Paper Garden Records, a testament to our nature and the nature of ourselves.

Our new best friends Adam and Vance from Earcandy discuss the negative connotation of the word “hipster” and how it affects the way they shop for pants. The guys chat with Drew and Chad Hermiller of Team Genius about craft beers, band rivalries, and good places to get feminist literature in Austin Texas right in our backyard during Hillstock 2011.

Kidstreet.  Yes, it’s that amazing late ’80′s/early ’90′s Canadian TV show based around sibling teams competing against one another to win toys and prizes.  More noteably, however, is the incredible electro-pop kinder surprise band that drew their name from the show.  As a sibling trio themselves, Kidstreet is generously treating the rest of us to a little prize of our own, in the form of their strongly caffeinated song, “X” and the music video for “Penny Candy”.

Kidstreet was originally brought to our attention during one of many blurry nights at NXNE a few years ago.  Since then they have toured and played shows with Girltalk, Thunderheist and Au Revoir Simone, signed with Nettwerk, and are now coming down to NYC to play Paper Garden’s CMJ showcase!  Their live show brings a sugar high on par with a million pixi stix.  Dancing shoes required.
