Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy - “I See A Darkness”

Natural Child - “That’s How I Got to Memphis”

Here We Go Magic - “How Do I Know” (Bandstand Busking Session)

I really love this album. The original music video for this song is outstanding, but its always great to see intimate live recordings.

You Won’t - “Television” (Big Ugly Yellow Couch Session)

I’ve posted about these guys many a time now and tonight I finally get to catch them live at The Satellite with Alcoholic Faith Mission. Skeptic Goodbye  was a huge highlight of 2011 for me, truly enjoyable album beginning to end. Listen.

Anna Ash - “Wild”

Ladies, if you’re looking for the key to my heart, it just might be an autoharp. Check out more of the wildly lovely and haunting Anna Ash here. 

Feist with Mountain Man - “Cicadas and Gulls”

This is quite incredible. Feist with a little help from the ladies of Mountain Man and a few dancers performing “Cicadas and Gulls” on the street. I really hope Mountain Man will be with her at Bonnaroo in a few weeks. 

St. Vincent +1

Annie Clark of St. Vincent and the Dessner bros of the National discuss the Crossing Brooklyn Ferry festival at BAM prior to St. Vincent’s performance. You can see a little bit of her extremely talented guitar playing and her punk rock roots coming out. See you in Manchester Annie.
