Will Schube owns 4% of Pied Piper If at this point, after so many good full-lengths, and equally inspiring non-album singles (a label many bands use to release not-up-to-par work into the world) you don’t listen to Woods, you probably never will. But for fans of the New York neo-psychsters, “Tambourine Light”—their latest non-album single […]
Will Schube slap chops venison Every couple of years, Dan Snaith re-emerges as Caribou, just to remind us that he’s a Lebowski-level capital D Dude. The Milk of Human Kindness came out in ’05, and was the kind of “oh shit” release that left you dying for new tunes as soon as you wore out […]

Will Schube runs the Passion of the Weiss Indie Rock Department from his hometown of Pawnee Matt Popieluch hasn’t been doing much of late. His spotlight dissolved when his band Foreign Born broke up, and his help with Fool’s Gold relegated him to the role of unsung hero. The dude’s had a presence as a […]
Will Schube’s life story is currently being adapted on HBO’s new series “Silicon Valley” Well, this is weird. Ought’s singer, Tim Beeler, sings “Habit” with the delivery of David Byrne’s twin.
