Cut Copy—New Song, New Album


AAAAh! This week I was thinking of dedicating my new "song of the week" feature to Cut Copy and the track they dropped last July, Where I'm Going. Reason being: The Coachella 2011 lineup* was just announced and it's pretty exciting. It includes Cut Copy of course, right there on the poster in 3rd largest type, on April 15. If you are a long-time reader or listened to my radio show in 2008 you might recall I was practically foaming at the mouth that year with love for Cut Copy, especially their 2008 album In Ghost Colours. And now they're back.

But wait! In the last 24 hours, a new song has appeared on the internets as a taste of the new disc, Zonoscope, that drops in about 10 days. It's called Need You Now. I listened once twice and am going for it again. Please join me--press play! What do you think? (They are on tour in April, if you live between NOLA. NYC and Toronto and want to see them, visit cutcopy.net for a dates.)
