There are few artists, and indeed few people in general, who have had such a productive pandemic as this man. This marks his 4th release since lockdown started. While it is technically true that one of those was a live album recorded on the tour leading up to Covid, I’m still going to count itContinue reading “#672 – Mercy by Trey Anastasio”

For the next couple of days, I’m working at the Director’s Guild Awards.

The title of this album is perfect, as it evokes a road-trip through the American southwest. A great collection of folk/country instrumentals.

These guys are a prolific Australian indie rock band who managed to release more than one album per year between 2012 and 2018. Seems like they’re overdue for another one.

There are a lot of amazing stories about the heroism of average Ukrainian citizens. One article in particular caught my eye about Ukrainian musicians doing what they can to support the defense efforts. In this case, the members of this group have actually taken up arms to defend their homeland from foreign invaders.

It’s always great to discover a new artist who makes jazzy instrumental music. Perfect mood music for a mellow dining experience.
