German Error Message “2017″

For my money, German Error Message is The Microphones of the Nashville area and he certainly does not disappoint with maintaining that moniker on his latest released song, “2017.”  I hope there’s a full album behind this.

Support Jessi Zazu (Those Darlins) If you haven’t read this piece in The Scene on Jessi Zazu’s Cancer Battle, stop what you’re doing and read it right now. While heartbreaking, it’s also inspiringly optimistic. She is forging ahead with writing new works, investing in new creative endeavors and sharing her strength through an experience that seems […]

Tristen “In Winter Blues”

Want to enjoy good music and DO good while doing so? Steer yourself towards the latest, rather beautiful, track from Tristen entitled “In Winter Blues.” All proceeds benefit the International Rescue Commission, an organization dedicated to providing lifesaving care to people fleeing conflict and natural disaster. Seems like the most Christmas-y thing you could go.

Okey Dokey “Congenial Man”

If you didn’t catch it already on The Cream, please find some time immediately to listen to the latest from Okey Dokey. Really looking forward to that album (supposdly out in early 2017 I believe). (Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

Flourescent Half Dome – Jewel Tones

While `Fluorescent Half Dome` may be the title of a Dirty Projectors song it should be better known for being the name of Krista Glover’s solo outing (also known for her enjoyable work in dream-pop band Wildfront). There is a distinctive 80′s production quality to the seven tracks, down to the programmed drums and occasionally […]

Paperhead “Dama de Lavanda”

Mind currently being blown by the goodness of the first sneak peek of Paperhead’s new album, Chew. Latin-y horns, jangly guitars, hazy Beatles-esque vocals, a tiny bit of guitar lick and a flute tinged outro; a combo you’d never think would work quite this well. Officially excited for the full album.
