BRIGHT EYES
Bright Eyes is the main project of American singer-songwriter/guitarist Conor Oberst. Bright Eyes also features multi-instrumentalist/producer Mike Mogis, keyboard player Nate Walcott and a rotating lineup of collaborators drawn primarily from Omaha, Nebraska’s indie music scene. Conor Oberst has been recording music since the age of 13. He released his first three albums at the ages of 13, 14, 15, respectively, all under the name “Conor Oberst” and released only on cassettes
Conor Oberst is releasing another record today. Remember when he did that as Bright Eyes and not under his legal name? The guy is tricky. Do you remember when Lifted came out seven years ago? That feels like a lifetime ago. Oberst sounds just as far away (read: like a baby) in this karaok-i-fied clip for "Lover I Don't Have To Love." It's in the key of A minor.

olaf_breuning
Olaf Breuning is a Swiss-born artist whose art revolves around humor, pop culture, mixed media pieces, and themes of desire, reaction, and perception. He works in many different mediums, including photography, drawing, installation, sculpture, and video. Although he is a very successful artist, he still continues to be very organized (which I love) and he doesn’t strive to fit into the art world. His art, although publicly displayed, is mostly done for personal satisafaction and amusement.
