I can’t speak for everyone around here (since everyone else is on tour!), but a bunch of us at K like Jarvis Cocker.  So can you imagine how exciting it was for us to get an email from Lois telling us that he played Mount Eerie and our pals, Earth, on his weekly radio show last Sunday?  SO EXCITING!  You can listen to it here while it’s up for the next couple of days, and if you’re lucky enough to be in Europe, you have the opportunity to see both bands before they wrap up their European tour together with Ô Paon on the 6th!

Dub Narcotic Sound System (feat. Lois) - Ship to Shore (Boot Party Mix)
284 plays

What a dream - nobody brings the ruckus like Dub Narcotic Sound System, and no one can sing it like Lois. When you put the two together… you get “Ship to Shore”, one catchy-ass, hearty-heart jam.

This magic moment is from 1996 - and by golly, we’re still swooning for this song fifteen years later. Go listen and you’ll know what we’re talking about.
