Again - not a new song...but they may be new to you! Not to me - I've been obsessed over these guys for a couple years now. Tonight, I'll go see them....hopefully with Jen Trend! If you don't fall in love with them from this ....(*cough* beard porn....) Then how about Scott Avett with his … [Read more...]
New Tune Tuesday – Jack White – Blunderbuss
It came out a couple weeks ago - and it's been on repeat on my iTunes ever since. I can't really pick one song for you that I love the best. I was going to show you Sixteen Saltines...but the video is a bit disturbing....didn't want to catch flack...so get check it out! (And if you can explain it … [Read more...]
New Tune Tuesday – Alabama Shakes – Hold On
Besides sleep, hands down the thing that I miss most about my pre-kid life is discovering new music. My friends and I are all big music lovers. We'd swap cd's of awesome new bands that we'd discovered and knew that the others would love. We'd end up at a hole in the wall bar at … [Read more...]
To the bang bang boogie
My formative musical years, 1982-90, age 13-21 were an interesting time in music. I was entering high school with a giant white man afro, likely a velour shirt for some reason and Levi red tab jeans. I was six foot 3 and 204lbs, statistics I know from my football weigh in where I was quickly … [Read more...]
Simple Song
I really love The Shins.There's a scene from the 2004 movie Garden State, where Natalie Portman's character Sam, and Zach Braff's Andrew Largeman meet in a clinic's waiting room. At one point, she holds out her earphones and says, "You gotta hear this one song, it'll change your life, I swear..." … [Read more...]
The Grammy’s Are Coming!

I’ve Got Your Sympathy Riiiiight Heeeeere…
Every time my kids hear that Moves Like Jagger song, they start jumping around saying, "Oh! It's Mick Jagger!" to which I swiftly reply, "NAY! This is NOT Mick Jagger AT ALL!!" And I roll my eyes a lot, and maybe even stamp my feet a little. I mean, I love Maroon 5 as much as the next lady (that … [Read more...]
Zebra – John Butler Trio
I'm just coming off a lazy weekend with family, and I feel like I need to e-a-s-e myself into this week... reggae often does the trick. Buy nature, it's slow-ish and groovy, and there's nothing rushed about it. Feels like my weekend.With reggae, you gotta drop that plucky beat on the one and the … [Read more...]
Something About You
My sister and I were discussing Level 42 the other night. (This is what sisters when they visit each other, over wine and fancy nibbles late into the night, you know.) Anyway, we contemplated one of their most popular songs, Something About You, which is one I listen to with a vague, nostalgic … [Read more...]
Remedy
This morning my son walked to school with our neighbours, and a short time later, I took his sister to preschool for her first morning this year.And then I returned home to some silence I haven't enjoyed since June. Silence really is golden, yo.But, this time of year - the return of the school … [Read more...]
