Plays Well With Others & Future Sounds present: Lissie!!!!

Hi Everyone!

We are so very excited to share with you our most recent finished video from our SXSW extravaganza. While in Austin we participated in a great party with American Songwriter Magazine, XO Publicity & Future Sounds… the result was a beautiful experience with some of the most incredible artists that played the festival.

Lissie was by far one of our favorite performers we saw that week, there is a strikingly honest passion that exudes from her presence and its no doubt you will see exactly what we are talking about when you watch the videos below. She was an absolute joy to interview, being one of the most warm, kind, and open artists we’ve met in a long time.

Please enjoy what you see and hear and please spread the word!

Plays Well With Others, Future Sounds & Swinghouse Studios Bring You The Antlers Live Session

Hi Everyone…

We know its been quite a while since any of us on the Plays Well team has blogged and we do apologize for the lapse in content…. things got a little crazy at SXSW and left us all pretty wiped out. Be expecting though, you’ll see things pick back up here starting now 🙂

Below is a live session that we were fortunate enough to be a part of a little while back with our new friends The Antlers. Today we’ll be sharing a video of their heartbreakingly beautiful song “Bear”, which happens to be one of our favorite tracks off their most recent record Hospice. Check back here tomorrow as we share with you an intimate interview with the band!

Please support the band by picking up their record here.
