I could go on a five hour tangent on how amazing Ryan Gosling is, but I’ll save that for another time. My fiance introduced me to ‘Dead Mans Bones’, a music group comprised of Gosling, Zach Shields and most of the time a childrens choir from the Silverlake Conservatory of Music. With its eerie vocals, choral background, perky melodies and adoration for well dead things, this music is a shining example of how celebs can music right. The band have performed a handful of gigs, incorporating local childrens choirs at each event, and Pitchfork put together a multi-act doc on a recent gig here in NYC at Le Poison Rouge. Their album, out on ANTI Records, showcases the eerie sensibility that comes from a person who might have spent just a bit too much time at the Haunted Mansion as a kid and obviously loves 60′s girl groups. Think Spector meets Disney’s Music From the Parks, with a hint of David Lynch, just without all the murder and mayhem. Enjoy.
