Watch out, Mic Jagger, Lana’s got her sights set on “lips of the new millennia.” True. Lana Del Ray released her second single in the US. (Blue Jeans was a B-side). Born To Die has been on rotation in triple OG Nancy Sinatra’s live set for a minute now. Patriotic thug life in its most naked form.

Matuse Family Member, Hunter Lysaught, recently spent some time on the North Shore of Oahu. Unfortunately November was one one of the worst starts to winter one can remember in quite a while. However, Hunter was able to train and surf smaller waves which is great for the WQS circuit. After a month of warm water and small wave shredding Hunter came back to SD. He quickly went up to the Volcom VQS contest at El Porto, Manhattan Beach. Hunter ended up placing 4th in the finals. Not bad considering ex WCT surfer Wardo took down the contest. Keep an eye out for Hunter as he works his way up the WQS ranks.

San Diego filmmaker Jeff Durkin will be screening his new film “Working Class” at the Pearl Hotel tonight, Dec 6th, from 6-9pm. Working class is a documentary about San Francisco artist Mike Giant and San Diego artist Mike Maxwell. The film will give the audience a peek into their artistic process, their 12-year friendship, and how their city shapes the work they create. Durkin will also be showing the trailer for his new project “Art as a weapon.”- a study on the intersection between street art, Buddhism and human rights in the closed country of Burma. This documentary includes an interview with artist Shepard Fairey.
