From the Basement has a collection of videos of your favorite artists singing
The quality is wonderful, but you can’t embed them sadly, so you’ll have to
check them out yourself.

The whole emphasis of the show is about being artist friendly and making our bands as comfortable as possible so that they can give great performances without the usual agony of TV promo which everyone has to do but no one seems to enjoy. TV world is a pretty hostile environment for your average musician to have to walk into and bare his soul on cue.. It also doesn’t hurt that a lot of the people we’ve filmed are friends or people we’ve worked with before so they trust us and know that we understand what recording music is about as well as making good TV.


All in all I think it all adds up to something unique and special which I don’t feel happening anywhere else in either the music side of mainstream TV or corporate online content.

Here’s a list of bands you can watch (or will be coming soon to watch):
Architecture in Helsinki, Autolux, Band Of Horses, Gnarls Barkley, Beck, Andrew Bird,
Terry Callier, Jarvis Cocker, CSS, Eels, Envelopes, Fleet Foxes, Free Blood, The Fall, José González, Albert Hammond Jr., Neil Hannon, PJ Harvey, Iggy And The Stooges, The Kills, Jamie Lidell, Laura Marling, Mercury Rev, My Morning Jacket, Operator Please,
The Raconteurs, Radiohead, Damien Rice, Seasick Steve, The Shins, The Shortwave Set, Sonic Youth, Sparks, Super Furry Animals, White Denim, The White Stripes and Thom Yorke
