This is some fresh stuff… If Elvis Presley was Asian-Canadian, had a baby named Matt Berninger, played lo-fi rockabilly, and was named Alex Zhang Hungtai, he would be called DIRTY BEACHES. I discovered this gem of a one-man band while lurking on the interwebs from the latest SXSW convention. The name Dirty Beaches has been on my radar for some time, but I never payed any heed. Deciding to delve further into the unknown, I found something that will be the perfect harbinger to my Summer 2011. Mr. Hungtai, you will play the soundtrack to the purchase of my new house, my graduation from nursing school, and the joyous feel of putting back beers in the park at sunset. Thank you. Thank you, very much.
