run toto run covers passion pit. (video)

I had never heard of the band Run Toto Run until I saw this video on My Old Kentucky Blog; as it turns out, they're spectacular. Their music is similar to Passion Pit's: upbeat and poppy, often using more electronic sounds. But in the video, they transform the more mechanical sounds of "Sleepyhead" with a xylophone and a violin. It's the sort of video where the band isn't doing anything too phenomenal, but they look like they're having the time of their lives. Watch and be happy.

Andrew Bird Plays "Anonanimal" in a Cathedral

Say what you will about P4k, but they consistently make things like this video happen. It has always been pretty apparent that Andrew Bird is versatile and talented musician. Multiply that by 20 for anyone who has had the honor to see him live, running around in 'Fitz and dizzyspells.' This video is the most amazing thing I have ever seen him do. No running or anything (though some instrument changing), it is just simply a brilliant composition executed brilliantly. I will stop gushing now. Watch.
