Great to be home. Let the summer shenanigans begin!

Swimmin' the Great Lakes

I am a wee bit in love with Tony Dekker from The Great Lake Swimmers. I think it’s because most of his work is inspired by the wonders of Canada’s natural environment. There is something really humbling in that. “Your Rocky Spine” lyrics were circulating in my head as I drove across a large portion of Ontario, passing through quaint small towns and scenic farmland. Their CD Lost Channels, plus a Canadian road trip=perfection.

This is wonderfully serene! A great way to spend three minutes of your time.

Angus & Julia

The Australian siblings, Angus and Julia Stone, are here with their second album, Down the Way. Sibling acts are truly wonderful and in this case beautiful. Though I appreciate the alternating vocals and their distinct styles, I must admit that I prefer Angus' voice. So far, my favourite song from the album is Black Crow...

Band Time

Cobra Den Invitational: Wakey!Wakey! - Ambling Alp (Yeasayer) from Goddamn Cobras Collective on Vimeo.

If I was in a band, I would want the atmosphere to be like the one in this video. A bunch of my friends in a bright room colouring on the walls. What a life. What a bunch of talented people.
