What I’ve Been Grooving On Lately – Video Edition

Some albums and artists I’ve been enjoying lately – video edition.

Kate Jacobs – Home Game

Kate has long been a favorite of mine, and she’s never yet put out an album that has disappointed me.  Apparently, Kate overheard the story behind this song in Central Park.

Lynn Miles – Fall For Beauty

Another longtime favorite, Lynn Miles new CD comes out in the States this month.

David Wax Museum – Everything Is Saved

Early favorite for album of the year, David Wax Museum blends Americana and Mexican folk stylings into an intriguing fusion. Here’s their first single:

Paper Aeroplanes – The Day We Ran Into the Sea

I like the jangle pop stylings of this Welsh pop duo.

Mixtape

As someone who would make a mixtape at the drop of a hat and obsess over it, I appreciate the following song and video from the new Tift Merritt CD.  Here’s one for all the mixtapers and all the hours spent agonizing over getting it just right.

    Maria Sebastian Video

    I got a nice note from Maria Sebastian, whose fine Americana album I added to the station lately, saying that she was inspired to get a video up to youtube after being listed here in the New Adds section of artists without videos.  Since she worked so hard, the least I can do is share that video with you:
