I, Jonathan is the fourth album by Jonathan Richman. The truth is that I haven’t been listening to him for 15 years or anything, hell by the time I post this I won’t even have been listening to him for 15 hours! But that doesn’t mean I can’t tell you about how fantastic this albumContinue reading “Jonathan Richman – I,Jonathan”

Track Of The Week – Will Joseph Cook – Hands
Heard Will Joseph Cook in a cafe about a week ago. Started listening to him on Spotify. He plays very “nice” indie music. I wouldn’t have him on everyday but it certainly has its place! Here is his song “Hands”; an easy on the ear track from his debut Sweet Dreamer.
Heavy Lungs – Abstract Thoughts
It wasn’t by hearing their screams from a distance that I first heard Heavy Lungs, it was through my incessant listening of another shouty band; IDLES. Heavy Lungs were recommended on their Artist’s Pick a week prior to their Irish gig in Button Factory, a gig I was lucky enough to make off. I actuallyContinue reading “Heavy Lungs – Abstract Thoughts”

Track Of The Week-Sharon Van Etten-Holding Out
An artist I’ve fallen for recently, Sharon Van Etten’s debut ‘Because I Was In Love’ is a personal, indie/folk record whose title simplifies the stories told in its songs. Very easy on the ear, the records’ final track ‘Holding Out’ takes our Track Of The Week spot. ABSOLUTELY check out Van Etten’s music, she’s wonderful!Continue reading “Track Of The Week-Sharon Van Etten-Holding Out”
Neutral Milk Hotel-On Avery Island
Last year I blabbered on about how great Neutral Milk Hotel are and how their record ‘In the Aeroplane Over the Sea’ is one of my favourites. While that is true, their debut record ‘On Avery Island’ is something of a mystery to me. I’ve gone over it twice in the last week and I can’tContinue reading “Neutral Milk Hotel-On Avery Island”
Warren Zevon – Werewolves Of London
Oh yes! A classic tune here for yall. Going way back for this week’s Track of the Week with Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves Of London”. I’ve been going through his music recently and this is one of his better known tracks, one you’ve surely heard on the radio! Absolutely love Warren’s stuff, songs similar enough toContinue reading “Warren Zevon – Werewolves Of London”
Chilliwack-Dreams, Dreams, Dreams
ANOTHER little review just for you! Chilliwack are a band I kind of got into while I lived in Canada. I’m pretty sure it was Rock 101 because they were always on wherever I worked, and Chilliwack, being Canadian, got a lot of air time. They’ve a few hits and you’ve probably heard some ofContinue reading “Chilliwack-Dreams, Dreams, Dreams”
