Really loving this record. From Kenya. Moved to the U.S. Got into Americana. Seeing him in a 100 capacity club at the end of the month. He just cancelled and rescheduled 4 dates in May so he could open for Neil Young!

It's hands-down my AOTY so far. Saw him in early April and his live show is also fantastic. He's hysterical.

Earlier today:

Brad Armstrong - I Got No Place Remembers Me

Now this:

So good. Anyone who wrote this band off after Celebration, Florida has missed an incredible three album run.

that's bad ass on the band.

is it the pie dude?

Nope. You know the guy who does the "Fuck Britney, fuck Justin..." thing?

That dude. Great guy. Great player. Check out a band called "Don't Mind Dying," he's the guitarist.

Trapper Schoepp, just picked up the new album Primetime Illusion at his show in New Haven Monday night.

I'm not quite as high on it as you, but these last 3 albums have been really good. "Sell The House" from Life In The Dark is the best song they've ever written.

That song is devastating

New Will Kimbrough- I like It Down Here.
It's great.

New Tyler Childers song out today:


He also announced a new record for the summer and a summer-fall tour.

A shit load of Ray Wylie Hubbard today

Never been a huge Floyd fan, but one of my buddies is, and he's getting me on the train.

Springsteen-The River
DBT-The Fine Print

Springsteen - "There Goes My Miracle" I'm agnostic on the song (mostly just can't get excited about it in either direction) but I do wonder why Bruce Springsteen wants to make records that sound like mid 60's Tony Bennett or Mel Torme.

Mekons - "Born to Choose". From 1999 (I think) but especially relevant this week.

[Sorry I tried to post a youtube link, but it seems beyond me at the moment]

Molly Tuttle - When you’re ready

Emergency Third Rail Power Trip The Rain Parade

Great psych/folk/punk out of New Hampshire. Kind of like a New England version of Natural Child.
