Holiday Records Week: The Hairs - Electric Virgin EP

A new American indie pop label that gives away free music every Friday? Yes. We scour the world for the greatest new songs so you don't have to. No stone is left unturned. You are a child, and we are your parents.

This is the promise of Holiday Records, one of our favorite DIY labels. We've gotten several cool EP's and whatnots so far in 2010 and it has been a shame we haven't given them the attention they so rightfully deserve. Perhaps we shall remedy that by making this Holiday Records Week at SubEx, and by 'week' I mean as many days in a row until our A.D.D. kicks in.

Day 1: Hailing from Brooklyn, The Hairs are Alex of The Pains of Being Pure At Heart and Kevin of Knight School (+ beats). Though it's not always the case when you combine members of 2 great bands, The Hairs make a brand of lo-fi jangle-pop that proves to be equal to or greater than the sum of their collective parts.
