Spencer Barnett Releases New Video for ‘Waste My Time’

After releasing his debut EP earlier this year, the bright and folky Reckless which came out in May, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Spencer Barnett is back again. The hyper disciplined and ambitious 18-year-old has a tendency to record an EP is as little as a week and, as a result, already has two forthcoming releases in the pipeline. The second, I’m Fine, which is set for later this winter, is led by the brooding and airy single “Waste My Time,” out today.

 

“People’s attention spans are shorter than ever now, including me,” he says. “I like shorter spurts of music. If I were to put out an album, I’d have to write it all and put it all in place at that time and then put it out. But if I do EPs, I can show an evolution — there are pros and cons to this whole thing, but I just like putting out music.”

 

Currently based in LA, Barnett has recorded his most recent projects in California, upstate New York, London, and Leon in France. His latest video, shot by longtime collaborator Bellamy Brewster, was shot in Montauk earlier this summer. And his new record will likely reflect his nomadic tendencies — his debut was inspired by Joshua Tree, while his upcoming EP was recorded in the same studio in London that the 1975 has used for the past two years. “[People] can’t really book it because everyone just assumes that the 1975 is there the whole time, but that’s where we did I’m Fine in six or seven days.”

 

Watch the video for “Waste My Time” below now.

Navy Beach Set to Open in St.Thomas and St.Maarten

After a successful opening in Montauk, beachfront restaurant Navy Beach is expanding with two new outposts in St. Thomas and St. Maarten. The St. Thomas location will also partner with the Island Global Yachting Ltd. to offer the ultimate boat experience in the Caribbean.

 

Navy Beach St.Thomas is set to open in December with the Isle de Sol St. Maarten opening at the top of 2020. The St. Thomas location will feature a first-row waterfront setting surrounded by unobstructed yacht views and the Charlotte Amalie Harbor. The St. Maarten location will open on Simpson Bay, where the hotel will overlook the marina and the yacht shows as well. And, naturally, as known of Navy Beach Montauk, both new locations will offer a look at swoon-worthy sunsets.

And continuing its partnership with sea conservation non-profit Oceana, 20% of the proceeds from the collection will be donated to the cause. After stops in Massachusetts and New York, the transporting shop will make its final stop in Montauk at the end of the month. Check out the upcoming dates below.

Should you happen to be anywhere near the Hamptons….or further out in Montauk…note that high end jewelry MIANSAI by Michael Saiger will have a pop up shop housed in a 1958 Airstream for you to enjoy. It’ll be parked outside the lush grounds of Ruschmeyer’s (one of the top hotel and restaurants in Montauk). The outside of the airstream is as classic as can be with a little florescent signage. Inside, you’ll find a refurbished world of maple cabinets, brass framed ship windows (that serve as display cases), benches upholstered in vintage fabric, antique light fixtures and a white tile floor inspired by old world France. Also, the entire range of MIANSAI by Michael Saiger.  So basically, go eat a fab dinner, get a little tipsy and then go get that special someone a pretty bracelet.
