#385 – Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down by Noah and the Whale

If there’s one useful thing about Instagram, at least from the perspective of a mediocre music blogger, it’s that there are plenty of hip, young people posting their favorite new music all day long. In this case, today’s selection was posted by my niece, Christina, who is both an extremely talented singer and musician, butContinue reading “#385 – Peaceful, The World Lays Me Down by Noah and the Whale”

#384 – Goat by The Jesus Lizard

I was interested to learn that a grand jury has convened in New York to weigh charges involving the Trump organization. While this news is welcome, I have a hard time feeling optimistic about Teflon Don being made to feel any consequences for his lifetime of shitty behavior, but I am really hopeful that theContinue reading “#384 – Goat by The Jesus Lizard”

#383 – Mimi Digs It by Soule Monde

#382 – Teatro d’ira – Vol. 1 by Måneskin

These guys just won the Eurovision Song Contest, which is apparently unusual since it usually goes to a pop act. The reason it came to my attention, however, is because the lead singer has been accused of doing cocaine on camera during their victory celebration. Apparently, drug use is looked down upon by the EurovisionContinue reading “#382 – Teatro d’ira – Vol. 1 by Måneskin”

#381 – Today We’re Believers by Royal Canoe

I’m on my first post pandemic business trip, and it sure feels weird being in a new place. I could get used to this.

#380 – Hyperspace by Beck

How did it take me this long and a St Vincent remix to make me aware of this album? I’ve always been a huge fan of Beck’s trans-genre style from album to album, but apparently not enough to actually keep track of his new releases.

#379 – OK Human by Weezer

Happy birthday to me. As a gift to myself, I’m not going to bother coming up with something to write about.

#378 – Klassiche Gitarre by Arne Willems

One of my pandemic projects has been to improve my guitar playing and to get through as much of a Classical Guitar book that I’ve had for many years. I’m now able to play about a third of the pieces in that book, one of which is Handel’s “The Harmonious Blacksmith.” I went looking forContinue reading “#378 – Klassiche Gitarre by Arne Willems”

#377 – Djesse Vol. 3 by Jacob Collier

#376 – self-titled by H.E.R.

While I could write about the time that I worked on a music video with this artist, I can’t help but recommend that you check out H.E.R.’s newest video collaboration with the illustrious DJ Khalid. It’s is truly a masterpiece of both product placement and storytelling, in that order.
