tilly and the wall

Hailing from Omaha, Nebraska, tap dancing five-piece, Tilly and The Wall are something else. Then something more again. They’re kitsch-cool-camp-vauderville meets pop-folk-flamenco, with a tap dancer for a drummer and some serious, serious charisma for a calling card. Kianna [first four songs] and Nick from the group gave us the lowdown on what they’re spinning right now.

Boys Noize / & Down
It’s the ultimate club banger! Hard and straight to business.

Glass Candy / Rolling Down The Hills
It’s the perfect summer time song. Roll the windows down while you’re at it!

Sebastian Tellier / Divine
This song is super fun to listen to in the morning while I’m putting on my makeup.

Grizzly Bear / Knife (remix by Girl Talk)
This is SO fun to dance to. Girl Talk has what he does on lock down.

Nico / I’m Not Sayin’
Her voice has the ability to convey so many feelings at once.

Bronski Beat / Smalltown Boy
This is a really catchy, beautiful song.

Smog / Rock Bottom Riser
Bill Callahan is such a good lyricist. He just kills everyone.

Beach House / Gila
This song really touched me when I first heard it. The music is very evocative.
