They have a different pace of life in South Carolina.
It's that little bit slower, that little bit more relaxed... but then, how else would you explain a band like Del Sur?
Off kilter indie pop with a tropical feel, their hazy, bleached out songwriting allies itself to the likes of Mac DeMarco or Bad Weather California but has that slight Southern feel.
New cut 'Been So Long' airs on Vivid, and it's a perfectly potent introduction to Del Sur's idiosyncratic world.
Jez Dior smashed onto the scene back in 2013, with 'Candles' and 'Love Me To Death' causing a storm online.
A stylish fusion of hip-hop swagger and rock's biting crunch, he then seemed to take a step back to apply renewed focus to his music.
Well, he's back. Jez Dior is emboldened, with a potent EP package due to be unveiled later this year.
Now, though, Vivid is able to bring you new cut 'Loved You First'. Delivered with real panache, the crisp production is set against a raw-as-hell delivery.
Tune in now.

Following the recent surprise release of Nice as Fuck's debut LP, the Jenny Lewis-steered trio have unveiled new visuals behind their anti firearms anthem, "Guns."
The video finds the threesome of Lewis, Au Revoir Simone's Erika Forster and the Like's Tennessee Thomas decked out in military togs and berets. It's a pointed look that targets gun violence, especially in light of Lewis's lines like, "There are children crying every day / Put your guns away."
You'll find the grainy, concert footage-employing new music video for the protest song down below.

Hello, Darren? You have to promise me something, dear. I just heard a Conspiracy Theory about the Denver Airport.
What about the Denver Airport?
Well, from what mother says, it's evil.
What kind of evil, Samantha?
Tell 'em about the paintings and secret rooms!
There's strange paintings all over the place...and secret rooms!
And nobody knows who built it.
And nobody knows who built it, either.
Honey, that's just a government facility. You see, the government runs test to see where is the fastest way to hide the president in case of an emergency and where to put government equipment from time to time.
Oh. is that all?
Yeah, darling. I'll see you around 6 in time for dinner...Love you!...bye bye.
That's was my wife on the phone. Somebody told her about the space aliens we keep at the Denver Airport. Don't worry. We won't have to kill her.
Later that day...
Now, I think we should call the police pretty soon.
Why dear?
The peeping Tom that's in the window. She's been there for 6 seasons now.
