“Man on Fire”- Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
“Come dance with me,
over heartache and rage,
come set us free,
over panic and strange”

This is a great photo taken last week in SOHO. The couple on the left were really generous and I had a great conversation about music with them.
pianoacrossamerica, you are the apex of my definition of the word, “freedom.”

“Doorstep” by tUnE-yArDs
Lately, I’ve been rediscovering Merril Garbus’ knack for experimenting in mixtures of sunny pop melodies with lyrics that address social issues.
“Emmylou”- First Aid Kit
The duo’s harmonies are just great. Why doesn’t country music care about First Aid Kit yet?
Thing you now know: Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh wrote the song “Whip It” in an unsuccessful attempt to inspire President Jimmy Carter.
Happy Presidents Day, Tumblr.
Makes a little more sense now, I guess… nope.
“Blackberry Stone”- Laura Marling
Its so hard to believe she’s only a year older than I am.
“LA”- Gabriel Kahane
I’m usually not this adamant about a pointing to a new artist I’ve come to like, but you want to know about him and his work.
He also composed Craigslistlieder, a song cycle based on real Craigslist ads.
“Where Are the Arms”- Gabriel Kahane
Coming out of the glut of holiday music echoing from the streets and into sifting through end of the year “best of” playlists, I wanted to find someone I haven’t heard before and I came across this Brooklyn composer with classical and singer-songwriter stylings.
You’re going to want to catch his album and his Tiny Desk recording, and if you get as attached to his music like I did, you’ll want to find his show dates too.

The Muppets covering Mumford & Sons’ “White Blank Page.” What could we possibly have to add to this perfection?
the chickens and animal make this cover amazing.
even tho it’s not the real muppets….it’s still pretty good.
FANTASTIC.
