Trying a new thing here at Ear to the Ground.... every Wednesday (or at least this Wednesday... or maybe some Wednesday's) I am going to Shuffle up all the songs in my phone's memory and see what happens... Usually, the Morning Shuffles come from a playlist called "Current Stuff" which includes... well current stuff and basically all the recent adds plus some random stuff to keep things interesting. Songs are moved off of the playlist as they are featured and new music is added all the time (as memory allows). Beyond that playlist, I have approximately 4,000+ songs stored in my phone at any given time. As you might expect, it's a weird collection of some really interesting music that I've collected in various ways over the years. I have to say, the fact that Mary Gauthier and Chuck Prophet were the first two songs that came up... I am feeling optimistic.

Wednesday Morning Music Shuffle - Once Bitten, Once Bitten Mix
Tweet #E2TG
Time moves on. We walk unaided into the abyss. Sail our ships closer to the sun. Life become a series of movements, of stanzas. We stand alone and yet never truly alone...
We have some cool tunes to refresh, reinvigorate and renew your damaged innocence. Or something... we have cool tunes...
Pre-Shuffle:
"A Little Bit Longer" by Grass Root Kids (a nifty song by this awesome new band from Nashville)
"Red Light Love" by Those Darlins (Awesome song and check out the cool video in the playlist below. Nashville - Those Darlins will be playing at Eastside Hootenanny this Saturday and this will the first and only opportunity to hear some new songs from the next Those Darlins album which is due out in the Fall.)
"Peace and Quiet" by Waxahatchee (love this song. The band is from Illinois.)
"Waters of Babylon" by Valued Customer (first of two from our friends Patrick J. Power and Ugggy).
"Big Blue Wave" (Alternative Mix) by Hey Ocean! (Hey Ocean! are a Pop/Indie band from Vancouver, BC).
"The Drinking Song" by Valued Customer (Yes! Just Yes! and Very Yes!)
"Nine Lives to Rigel Five" by Game Theory (More Game Theory with a Star Trek reference - I am a equal opportunity geek)
SHUFFLE _after_ JUMP

Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Break on Through Mix
Tweet #E2TG
Well all sorts of bad things happened yesterday. Sending love and prayers and thoughts to the people of Oklahoma.
Also, remembering Ray Manzarek of The Doors who passed away yesterday. A true creative genius who shaped many generations of music.
We got some songs - as we are reminded again that Music Heals....
Today.... Pre-Shuffle-wise.
"More of the Same" by Britain. (feat. Clark Beckham) - this is the first released track from a forthcoming EP. Been digging on this track for a little while. Production by my good friend Hayden Coleman. Representing the 615 - but this is different.
"Run Like Hell" by Drive He Said
"Sugar" by Paper Route
Wakin On a Pretty Day" by Kurt Vile - this nine plus minute song transitions us into the Shuffle of the day.

Time is marching on. Hey, if you haven't now is the time to vote for the Band of the Year. The E2TG elves are busy, so don't expect much outside of Morning Shuffles and Band of the Year voting SPAM, but we have great things on tap for 2013. Shuffle it up after the jump:
