Dump



is the solo project of James McNew, bass player of Yo La Tengo.

It's warm and fuzzy indie rock, and i love it. It's all i listened to at work today.

In 2000, he put out an album of all prince covers called "That Skinny Mother Fucker with the High Voice?."

Your everyday Prince fans might not like it, since its not as hi-fi of a sound, but i think he definitely does the material justice.

Download it here if you want (don't forget the password, you'll need it when you extract the files):

I've only been able to find one Dump video on the youtube...

here that is:


He also recorded a great cover of Why?'s YoYo Bye Bye...here that is:
Dump sings Yoyo Bye Bye

And here he is peforming the song with Why? You also get to hear Yoni quote Snoop Dogg when asked what song they're about to play. Hilarious.
