L is for Love

Cute shirt from this Etsy shop. It makes me want to try out a tandem bike this spring.

Storytime


I love this man. His mustache, accent, stories. Trisarahtops, I think when you do illustrations for books, you should have a workplace like his. I would come visit everyday.

Whimsy Birds

I love these prints by Diana Sudyka. They are very whimsy and spring like and remind me of the illustrations from some of my favourite childhood books. An interesting fact about the wonderful Diana Sudyka, is that she has worked for Andrew Bird - what a wonderful pairing.

It's Time to Say It


So, the Born Ruffians new album, Say It, is expected to be released June 1st. I'm really liking the album cover, it reminds me of the crystal I found it the park a few days ago...  Anyway, the song, Sole Brother, is track number three on the album, and if you'd like you can download a version of it on Daytrotter Sessions... click here and may I suggest downloading Skeleton Me as well, it's quite wonderful.

Given' me the Heebie Jeebies

I came across this video by chance, and I just had to replay several times. This band, The Heebie Jeebies, reminds me of a UK version of the Born Ruffians; it's a good sound. Enjoy this homemade music video...
