Silversun Pickups: We’re Basically BFFs
We love Brian Aubert and Nikki Monninger of Silversun Pickups so much that we invite them to the LiveXLive studios whenever they’re in the neighborhood. They recently popped in for the third time to share some of their favorite music, including tracks from their brand new album “Widow’s Weeds.” They busted out all kinds of great songs for us, from the Beatles to Daft Punk to Hall & Oates to Donna Summer, plus they let us in on some fun facts about their band and their current obsessions.
Here are the top 5 things we learned:
- Brian is fascinated by David Bowie’s “Labyrinth”-era teeth and codpiece (Same, Brian. Same.)
- When listening to music, Nikki hears the bassline first. She collected songs with basslines she loves to inspire her before recording “Widow’s Weeds.”
- Brian and Nikki have heard their music being played in bars all over the world…but they don’t always recognize their own songs.
- In L.A., Brian and his friend have a DJ gig where they exclusively play songs from old movie soundtracks.
- Nikki likes to look at maps of Westeros from her favorite series, “Game of Thrones.”
Hear all of Brian and Nikki’s music picks, plus the stories behind them, on Silversun Pickups: I Am The DJ.
