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.
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.
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:
