Indie Music Weekly Picks: Fun., The Dimes
Welcome back to MaybeHip.com! Check out this wonderful episode of My Indie Life to hear what Rob and Lexi have to say about these two groups.
Fun. is a cool collaboration of Nate Ruess (formerly of The Format), Jack Antonoff (from Steel Train), and Andrew Dost (ex-Anathallo member). They’ve got a 70s-esque vibe happening in their music, with a modern orchestral-pop twist. If you appreciate great musicians putting their heads together, you will love this. Truly magical!
The Dimes have a baroque pop sound mixed with a bit of alt country and bluegrass. Their album out now is called “The King Can Drink the Harbour Dry” and is essentially a cliff notes on Early History set to music. Beautiful and sweeping.

Internet TV Weekly Picks: PG Porn
This week, our pick is “PG Porn”, a web series on Spike.com “for people who love everything about porn… except the sex”. It’s a comedy whose whole premise is to setup interactions you would normally find in porn films, but then turn them on their head comically.
The most basic premise goes something like… a female worker gives lots of sexual innuendos towards a male, and in the end, it’s revealed that it never was about the sex. However, my favorite episodes are the ones that play around with the format a bit more. Specifically, I love the “Helpful Bus” episode, which you can see below. It actually guest stars Craig Robinson, one of the stars of the film “Hot Tub Time Machine”. In other episodes of PG Porn, cameos are also made by Nathan Fillion (“Castle”, “Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog”), Alan Tudyk (“Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story”), and of course, actual porn stars. You can see Pat and I discuss the show, along with our review of “Hot Tub Time Machine” on episode 17 of OK, Good Stuff.

Chicago Music: Andrew Belle
Andrew Belle was a great treat in the studios. He has been touring around with “Ten out of Tenn”, a group of ten artists from Nashville, and shared a lot of the experiences living in one of the music capitals of the country. He painted a picture of walking into any coffee place and seeing people playing music. He then played us some great songs from his new album. The first song Static Waves was featured on a resent episode of Grey’s Anatomy. You can listen to those songs below and watch Andrew Belle’s episode of Chicago Rocks here.
