Available 11/30 – 12/7: Fort Lean “Beach Holiday”

Though Fort Lean’s story is fairly familiar – five young Brooklyn men form a rock band, play some gigs, and put out a record – their refreshingly earnest and straightforward sound might just be the perfect antidote for these convoluted times. They have a new four-song self-titled EP (available for free download on their Bandcamp page) full of Smiths-inspired tunes, with “Beach Holiday” and “High Definition” leading the jangle-and-croon charge. This is music for the young, hungry, and inspired.

Featured Track: “As You Like It”
Facebook: Haciendamusic
Myspace: /haciendaspace
Twitter: @hacienda_tx

Crafting 1960s-reminiscent rock and roll from languid vocals, rubbery rhythms, and surf guitar riffs, Texas’ Hacienda keep it in the family. The San Antonio quartet of three brothers Villanueva (Abraham, Jaime, Rene) and a cousin (Dante Schwebel) put together a six-song demo that caught the ears of Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys, who eventually recorded Hacienda’s debut album, Big Red & Barbacoa, at his home studio up in Akron, Ohio. Auerbach’s earthy production touches shine through on the reverb-heavy “As You Like It,” as featured in a recent video spotlighting our line of sweaters! Look for a new single “Savage” out now, and a new album this spring.

P.S. We’re kicking off our Clothes 4 Souls clothing drive with a special DIY Decorate Your Denim “Re-Work & Shop” event on Friday December 2 from 3:00PM – 6:00PM at our Roxy Times Square Store.  Come distress, sew, pin, and patch up your denim with ROXY denim designer Mark Wiesmayr, Olympic Gold Medalist and Roxy team rider Torah Bright, and Teen Vogue style expert Jasmin Reate.

Here’s where we will be from 3pm-6pm for the DIY event (mark it in your calendars & bring some friends!):

Roxy Times Square

New York, NY 10036

The holidays are swiftly approaching and that means that the season of gift giving and sharing is finally here!  Instead of just surprising your friends with cute friendship bracelets, picture frames with memories, and trinkets that remind you all of inside jokes, go a step further and surprise those in need.  ROXY is teaming up with national charity Clothes4Souls to hold a Winter Clothing Drive at our retail stores in NYC.  Between December 1-23, 2011, donate your gently used clothing to Clothes4Souls drop boxes in our New York stores and receive 40% off your ROXY denim purchase.  Yes, that’s almost half!  You won’t just look good wearing your new jeans, you’ll feel good, too, knowing that you helped out others.

Live in the New York area and want to get involved?  Here are the participating locations:

Roxy Soho
519 Broadway, New York, NY 10012

Roxy Times Square
3 Times Square
New York, NY 10036

Available 11/23 – 11/30: The Good Natured – “Wolves”

Warning!: The Good Natured’s songs are deliriously catchy pieces of Gothic-twisted electro-pop, each one studded with a circular chorus that’s destined to become lodged in your head for days. Indeed, if you’re a fan of Robyn or La Roux, you’re definitely in for a treat! These Brits’ heartbeat-driven anthems are equally ideal for the dancefloor or the treadmill, or especially a car jammed with friends heading out to party. We’ve had the new EP, Skeleton, on constant rotation for weeks – check out “Wolves” and you’re sure to hear what we mean!

The Roxy Refreshments are back and better than ever!  Here’s a sneak peak of things to come.  The 2011/12 Refreshments web video series will follow the winter adventures of the Roxy snow team, including Torah Bright, Sarah Burke, Robin Van Gyn, Erin Comstock, and more.  Stayed tuned every other Tuesday for more escapades on ice.

Featured Track: “Ya Ya Ya”
Album: Beauties Never Die
Myspace: /sissywish
Twitter: @sissywish

Norway native Siri Walberg has been recording internationally under the moniker Sissy Wish for nearly a decade, crafting a quirky, hypercatchy brand of indie pop that’s all her own. Walberg’s impressive vocal range recalls Bjork and Deborah Harry without sounding like either one of those legends, and we love her for it. Listen no further than “Ya Ya Ya” from her album Beauties Never Die, a tune that provides a bouncy soundtrack to our recent clip of Sally Fitzgibbons attacking Mexico’s waves.
