Ariana Grande - Love Me Harder (ft. The Weeknd)

The Barr Brothers - Half Crazy

noreply@blogger.com (Jessica) — Tue, 29 Jul 2014 14:52:00 +0000

The Barr Brothers are taking things in a different direction with this song but still incorporating the harp. It makes for an interesting and unexpected listen.

The description for this song is one worth knowing about. The soundcloud description reads:
"This song, Half-Crazy, could be described as the tenacious offspring of the North African desert music of Mali/Morocco and the sweat and electricity of the Chicago and Mississippi Delta blues. That music is like a stem-cell, really open to going in many directions. On this track, we wired the harp through a dirty little amplifier. I played my early 40's Oahu lap-steel. Andrew uses a loping high-hat feel, and the electric bass pushes the whole thing. The lyrics got a nudge from our friend Nathan Moore--we're all half-crazy, half clear as a bell."

say it sweet and tender

and you can let me go.

Agnes Obel - Aventine

There's something a little Enya-ish about this track, but it's enchanting none the less.

Hold On To Your Heart

The only mix I've been good at making regularly has been my Valentine's day one that usually includes favorite songs from the past year that I send out to friends. Since I've been so M.I.A. I figured I'd share it here too. Enjoy. Happy Valentine's Day.

Ha Ha Tonka and The Moondoggies

noreply@blogger.com (Jessica) — Mon, 27 Jan 2014 19:24:00 +0000

Granted I've been out of the music game for quite a while, so maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like Ha Ha Tonka's and The Moondoggies' 2013 album releases went shamefully unnoticed. I can't get enough of either of them and they compliment each other well. I'd love to see the two bands tour together. Have a listen.
