Following hot on the heels of The Noisettes Last.fm Originals session, Seattle based alt-rockers Minus The Bear have recorded a very special session for their fans, which came out just in time to mark the release of their latest album Infinity Overhead.
A track from the session – “Diamond Lightening” – was released exclusively on the Rock Sound website as a preview but the full session is available to watch now on the Last.fm Originals website.
Since forming in Seattle in 2001, Minus The Bear has worked relentlessly over the past decade to build a large and devoted following worldwide with consistent releases and a non-stop touring regimen. With a back-catalogue that has seen them sell over 300,000 records, the band has played countless sold out tours throughout the world, in addition to unforgettable performances at huge US festivals, including Bonnaroo, Coachella, Lollapalooza and Sasquatch!
Building on the huge success of Last.fm’s Originals sessions in the US, Last.fm HQ in London is embarking on a series of filmed sessions showcasing emerging and established artists. Last.fm’s Originals sessions are curated based on member listening data (‘scrobbles’), Hype Charts and label/artist partnerships. Shot in a number of diverse and visually compelling locations, they aim to reflect the personality of their showcased acts,as well as telling the story of their Last.fm journey through appropriate song choices.
