Rediscover: Molly Parden

Speaking of my pal Molly, I've been listening to her quiet, relaxing tunes for a handful of years now. She moved from Atlanta to Nashville a while back and seems to be doing mighty fine for herself and I'm mighty proud.

Discover: Joseph LeMay

Tooling around the internet (noisetrade.com specifically), I came across Joseph LeMay. Nice, laid back, folky tunes here. And as an added bonus, my pal Molly just happens to be singing BGVs.

Five For Friday: Based On A True Story

Here are five songs based on true stories.

May your weekend be filled with good stories!

Rediscover: Over The Rhine

Over The Rhine's songs are comfortable and familiar like a warm blanket on a cool Winter's night or a faithful, childhood dog lying it's head on your lap after you've had a long and terrible day. Any time I revisit them I wonder why I ever stopped listening to them.

Discover: Leagues

Some music just makes you feel good. Leagues makes you feel good. Kind of reminds me of a more happy Band of Horses or The Damnwells (vocally especially). I think their website describes it pretty well. "What LEAGUES creates is ethereal, joyful music that explodes the senses and challenges the mind."

Five For Friday: Last|First

This weeks songs were all selected and ordered by song title: the last word of the previous song being the first word of the following song.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Rediscover: Tom Waits

When you're drowning in an ocean of perfectly polished pop music, grab ahold of the lifesaver known as Tom Waits. You may at first feel disoriented and seasick, but give it time... You'll be glad you did.

Now, in the words of Monty Python, "And now for something completely different."
