The recipe for gaining hipster cred is pretty simple. Mix one part “activity an old person or kid would do” (i.e. knitting, kickball) with one part DIY (i.e. taxidermy, cross stitch), and finish with a pinch of good deed (i.e. CSAs). By that measure, the Yellow Bird Indie Rock Coloring Book will be the biggest thing in scenster-ville since deep v-neck t-shirts. The folks at I Heart Daily turned us on to this stocking-stuffer for the asymmetrically-coiffed loved one in your life. The book not only contains Pitchfork-approved canvases like Devendra Banhart’s gnarly beard and “give Rilo Kiley their latest hairstyle” smiley faces for you to Crayola-scribble on, but a portion of the profits will go to Yellow Bird Project’s selected charities like the Teenage Cancer Trust and Art for Change. With this impeccable list of bona fides, hipsters will be drawn to this coloring book like its a secret Dead Weather apartment show above a Bushwick vegan bodega on the anniversary of Elliott Smith’s death.
