In an effort to make interviews more exciting for bands, Coup De Main has launched a new interview series, CDM 101 - in which we help artists learn a new skill that they’re particularly intrigued by. First up are New Zealand duo Broods, who recently released their sophomore album, ‘Conscious’.
Being dog-lovers, we took them along to Auckland CBD based dog-groomers, City Dogs (check out all about them here) to learn tips and tricks for grooming some adorable dogs.
Florence + The Machine has released a music video for 'Wish That You Were Here' - a new song she wrote for the soundtrack of Tim Burton’s upcoming new film, 'Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children'.
Tom Odell has released a music video for 'Here I Am', starring none other than Kevin Spacey - "losing himself at a strobing house party; searching, or being chased by a mysterious something or someone."
Watch the 'Here I Am' music video below...
P.S. Keep an eye out for our new interview with Tom in our upcoming issue, CDM #19 - out October 3rd!

This past weekend, Bill Murray played bartender and served ecstatic fans at the launch of his son’s new bar and restaurant in New York.
During a toast, Murray said: "This is my first born-son, Homer. I am so happy that he has not continued in the family business. Instead, he has taken the joy of the family to have a drink, and have a meal, and have friends together in one place, and made it his life's work. To my son, and his friends, and his work friends and all of his partners."
