Fleet Foxes


"Indie rock is undergoing a folk renaissance" says Rolling Stone, and his band is leading it. You could easily be spinning or chilling with sun flowers in your hair while listening. Excellent track titles like 'White Winter Hymnal' and 'Tiger Mountain Peasant Song'. Easy listening for summer.

Frost/Nixon

This is the untold story of a TV report who takes on President Nixon. Watching actors of the modern day take on roles historical figures can be great when they nail it. Plus it's from the screen writer of 'The Queen' and 'Last King of Scotland'. Political movies are a winner at the moment.

iPod Boom Box


Lasonic has put together a serious ghetto blaster with a iPod docking station. Not really a necessity but definitely a cool way to bust out some beats. Also comes with a radio but don't expect quality sounds. Still looks awesome...

Desert Boots


A shoe that looks comfy and cool even with the laces undone. Happy to ditch the havianas for these rugged boots. Great for a day at the pub.
