Owen Holmes (bass player of Black Kids) has recently started his own project titled Gospel Music that takes the lo-fi bedroom pop that I adore up a notch.  With the help of some guest superstars, GM songs burst with a cuteness factor of 11.

Case in point (and admitedly the only song I’ve heard from the new Gospel Music EP) is “Automobile” which features a duet of Owen and Tracyanne Campbell of Camera Obscura and is quickly becoming one of my favorites of the year {download / listen}.

The EP tracklisting goes a little something like this:

“I Miss The Shit Out Of You” with SoKo
“Gamophobia” with Shirley Simms (The Magnetic Fields)
“Automobile” with Tracyanne Campbell (Camera Obscura) {video}
“Reinheitsgebot” with Darren Hayman (Hefner)
“Are Your Parents Still Together?” with Cassie Ramone (Vivian Girls)

I must get myself all of these songs asap (available digitally through Kill Rock Stars for only $3.99!).
