Chi-town’s experimental, have-fun-with-it young band Maps & Atlases is tinkering around with their popular track “Living Decorations” off their debut album Perch Patchwork out last year. Come March 1,  the indie four-some and Barsuk Records are releasing a couple mixes and live tracks exclusively via iTunes. Top that off with more tour dates, a stop at South by Southwest and a new music video for “Living Decorations” that’s goofy and tongue-in-cheek and we’d say their momentum is on the up and up.  Check out the new music vid here.
