Folk, Indie-pop??, indie 31 July 2009

Kind of an slow day on the blog the last couple of days due to host issues and “overworked” servers lending to delays in service.  I apologize for anyone who has tried to get here and was put off by the extremely slow loading times.  In true Canadian fashion, I …

 Folk, Freak Folk, Live, New Album, Video 30 July 2009

The post title says it all.  The track I speak of is “Leaving a Mark”.  It is a winding mellow hazy road of a track from the self proclaimed “psychedelic” Chicago resident that might also be known as Dan Schneider.  Schneider’s “The Singleman Affair” has a new album called “Let’s …

 Canadian, Folk, MySpace, New Album, Roots 29 July 2009

So I am not one to shy away from my “roots” (no pun intended).  So it is time to represent with some old school tunes (that aren’t actually that old) – but the tracks are from one of my “hometown” bands, the Wailin’ Jennys.
I am a previous resident of Winnipeg, …

Recommendations, recommendations.  Bloggers have many.  Most are pretty decent recommendations and for the most part we (hopefully) know what we are talking about.  As I often talk out of my ass, take what I say with a grain of salt – I obsess on bands or albums or songs, so …

Manchester Orchestra “Everything To Nothing” from MySpace Transmissions

Catch the whole thing over at MySpace Transmissions for the videos, interviews and free 5 track EP.  Admittedly I like “Right Away, Great Captain” (the solo more mellow version of Andy Hull) a bit more, but Manchester Orchestra have some chops and …

~image stolen from here.
It has been a while since I did a blog round up, so it is more than needed.  There are soo many great blogs out there, so much great music, that I cannot keep up with it, so thank goodness for my blogroll peeps!  Lets see what …

 Alt-Country, Americana, Down-Tempo, MySpace, New Album, Singer Songwriter 24 July 2009

Sometimes I get in a mood.  My mood is currently set clearly in the land of late night dusk across the plains of Maryland.  Wait?  Maryland?  Yes, Maryland.
Paul Masson delivered to myself (just yesterday) a fine example of why I could have been born in Texas in the 50’s.  Great …

 Down-Tempo, Folk, New Album, indie 23 July 2009

So best new music.  It is actually one of my categories and surprisingly gets selected on a pretty decent schedule.  This is because I tend to cover music that I like (go figure).  That being said, listen up people, BEST new music!
Meursault comes to me from Song, By Toad blog …
