The holiday slowdown has ended, and 2011 is in full-swing this week with a loaded edition of BlogTO's Audio & Video roundup, which includes a new song from Young Governor, a Memoryhouse mixtape, Pete Vandyk covers Jimmy Reed's "What You Want Me to Do," and two tracks from Hooded Fang. Video has equally as much content with new stuff from The Creepshow and Sweet Thing, Freedom or Death on AUX TV, a Southern Souls session with Ben Somer, and the lovely Feist goes in-depth about her new doc and art in general with Jian Ghomeshi on CBC's Q, and I've got even more jammed in for your listening and viewing pleasure.

Young Governor - "Married Man"
Ben Cook has been hard at work on the new, and highly anticipated, Fucked Up album, but that hasn't stopped him from working on his solo-project, Young Governor, releasing a new track called "Married Man" via SoundCloud and his blog. He goes in to some of the ideas behind the track in that blog post (if you're interested in that kind of thing), but you can listen to the song right here. The Married Man by youngguv
