So much going on, and yet I find myself constantly pressed for time. So here is a quick and dirty, non-complete run down of some things which have crossed my mind, my desk or my social media filters....
1. RIP Patty Andrews - the last surviving member of the Andrews Sisters.
2. The Great American Novel have released a new single...
3. Couch by Couchwest is about a month and a half away. Bands: Submit your videos to Couch by Couchwest - "Where the beer is cheaper and the only hipster is you."
A rare cooler day, but alas temperatures will be rising soon enough. We got a stunning potpourri of songs this a.m. so sit back and take it all in....
First up is a song from an unfortunately defunct Indie Pop band from here in Nashville. Popular Genius played extremely listenable, intelligent music. Apologize comes from the band's 2003 album, How to Be Popular.
A while back we presented a song from the Brooklyn Band EndAnd (who should in no way be mistaken for our friends (also from Brooklyn) The End Men. EndAnd are a hard rocking Alternative band. They have an album called Adventures of Fi in Space which came out this past December. The song today is called Labor Force.
We've been hitting up Justin Townes Earle's album Nothing's Gonna Change the Way You Feel About Me Now pretty hard. It's another excellent record by the Americana giant. Justin Townes Earle will be part of the Mumford and Sons cavalcade (my term) which will hit a few cities this summer (including a stop on the Tennessee/Virginia border). The song today is called Won't Be the Last Time.
And finally, we got a track from the Pure album by Nashville supergroup, The Bluefields. Warner, Dan and Joe Lay it on the Line right here!
