The Swell Season

The Swell Season's awesome album Strict Joy has been monopolizing my listening for the last few weeks, so of course I felt obligate to post their new video for the track In These Arms.  A nice simple black and white video that feels intimate, a nice pairing for the rawness of the track.

If this tickles your fancy you can find some other awesome Swell Season stuff online right now.  There is a nice 5 song set that the group played at Amoeba complete with video and all over here.  And as one might expect, they also have an incredibly awesome Daytrotter session from late last year available here.  Rock.

The Swell Season is mostly booked overseas for the next couple of months but they do have a show scheduled at the Hollywood Bowl on July 18th.   [via the scenestar]
