The exciting debut from Portland three-piece, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, came out yesterday on Fat Possum. Guitarist Ruban Nielson recorded the album after relocating to Portland from New Zealand and pieced a band together, with skilled producer, Jake, on bass and a brilliant teenage drummer named Julien to fill out the band. Check out rare live footage of them performing at Different Fur studios in San Francisco for http://yourstru.ly/. Their performance of “Thought Ballune” & “Little Blu House” from the LP will air this Friday night on “The Daily Habit” on FUEL TV at 11pm EST.

“How Can U Luv Me”
