Duff McKagan listens to Barcelona

I’ve Been Listening to Whatever My Daughter’s Listening to: Pixie Lott, Plasticines, and Phoenix

Plastiscines

Duff McKagan’s column runs every Thursday on Reverb. He writes about what’s circulating through his iPod every Monday.

​My oldest daughter, Grace, is now 12 years old and has become a major influence on the newer music that I find these days. I have always been an unapologetic fan of sometimes-cheesy pop music, and my ear will like things that others may find a little uncool. Oh, well. This week, take a trip with me into my daughter Grace’s playlist, the newest and hippest stuff out there via YouTube:

Pixie Lott, « Boys and Girls »
I think this is one of Mark Ronson’s new projects, as I saw this video a TON when I was recently in the UK. If you like Duffy and Amy Winehouse, Pixie Lott is a newer and perhaps poppier version of this ilk.

Plastiscines, « Barcelona »
Plasticines are a new all-girl rock/pop band with a knack for writing a good hook. This is really fun stuff that needs no high-brow critic to dissect them. Maybe like a cross between the Go-Gos and the Ting Tings. Check it out.
