Five For Friday: Songs For Your Hammock

Here are five songs that go well with a hammock and a refreshing beverage. I'm sure they would work equally as well if you were strolling along the beach... Relax and enjoy.

Rediscover: Band of Skulls

YES to Rock 'n' Roll!!! Can't wait for Band of Skulls now album to come out at the end of next month. Until then, find out more about Band of Skulls here.

Discover: Andrew Bird

I don't know if this really belongs in the "Discover" or the "Rediscover" area now since I've known about Andrew Bird for quite a while... But since I didn't really start listening to him until the last year or two, I'll just put it here for now. Anyway, he's brilliant...

Five For Friday: Summer

After the ridiculous Winter we've had here, I'm so ready for Summer. Here are five songs to try to coax it to come a little early... I'm sure Spring won't mind.

Rediscover: Elbow

I discovered Elbow thanks to the late, great 92.9 Dave FM here in the Atlanta area. I can thank them for many musical discoveries... But this is about Elbow... Yep. Elbow. A weird name for a fantastic band from across the pond. I love the feel of their music and their lyrics and phrasing are genius.

Learn more about Elbow here.

Discover: Gary Clark, Jr.

This is big, dirty, dusty, nasty blues... If you're numb before listening to this, you won't be afterwards... but if you still are, then you're probably dead.

Five For Friday: ICE!

It seems that we don't handle it very well here in the Atlanta area when multiple-millions of tiny frozen objects fall from the sky, but I think we learned a lesson from the insanity a couple of weeks ago. Fortunately , this time it wasn't as bad (I'm writing this on Tuesday night and keeping my fingers crossed). And to make it even less bad, here are five songs about ice to kick off your weekend.

Stay safe out there.
