Along with a brand-new music video, the dream-psych artist shared his favorite spots to score breakfast, books and the “best vegan reuben this side of the Mississippi”
———————————————————————————————
Today, we were thrilled to premiere the new music video for Brooklyn based dream-psych artist DD Island‘s latest track, “Cherry Tongue.”
We dig it. A lot. And because we always want more from our favorite artists, ahead of the upcoming DD Island show at Purgatory on September 9th (tix here), we asked Brandon Rhodes to share his favorite spots in Brooklyn—and beyond.
