Here at the DPD we take quiet pride in our ability to pick the musical future. Are you hearing Free Energy at Forever 21? You heard them hear first. Eager to get the album by the new band Girls?

Now our crystal balls are telling us that Local Natives are coming soon to a hip cable show/ Urban Outfitters / biodiesel mercedes / leaky iPod headphones in the subway near you. Three part harmonies, muscular folk and a palpable joy are what set this band away from the pack of four cuties with haircuts and instruments that are currently clogging the web.

Tender Greens
Tender Greens is like your favorite rock band where you want to keep it a secret but also hope for tremendous success. And successful it is. Healthy and tasty salads and veggies, lean cuts of steak, chicken and tuna all served up in a 'fast food' style and price tag - but in a much better environment and quality. The flatiron angus steak with Yukon Gold potatoes top out my list. I also love to get the line caught ahi tuna with a baby spinach and goat cheese salad - quite tasty when I'm shooting for lighter fare. Makes for a nice and not-too-expensive dinner, and an excellent lunch as well.
