New Music All the Time

As you know, I am a big fan of the music site Eardrums Pop.

If you ever find yourself in need of a new musical experience, I highly recommend that you jump over there and try out a few of the artists featured. You get 3 and 4-song EPs for free, and the musicians get exposure, and (hopefully) some good word of mouth!

Mute Math

Just got 3 tickets for their 02/08/2014 show!

Beer: Goose Island Honker's Ale

A nice beer from the Goose Island Brewery in Chicago. Good stuff.

And Year 4 begins...

I sent out musician invites to several alumni, including 'lifers' Elizabeth Lorrey and Almanac Mountain. Barely 3 hours in, and Elizabeth has signed on for her fourth year playing my little music festival by the lake, the annual Wyman's Pond Music Fest.

I am going to try something a bit different this year, by both beginning and ending the day later than usual. I want to have an electronic act perform after dark, so there will be something new for everyone to experience. You know, aside from all of the new music everyone has put out in the last year! Check out the performer links for great sounds, both new and classic.

Big Bang for Your Buck

One of my favorite shoegaze/dreampop bands, Echodrone, has pointed out this little gem:

 

"300,000: A Compilation (Volume One)"

 



Thirty songs of the 'shoegaze slash ambient slash yadda-yadda-yadda' ilk, all for free! What a way to start the year with new music from many bands you might never have discovered separately! Click on the link in quotes above, and then do a happy dance as your music downloads. With thirty songs to choose from, there just has to be something for everyone... ♫♪♫♪
