Bandcamp

I love finding bands on Bandcamp. I have a personal library of the music I have purchased, and have snagged even more for free when it's been offered at that price.

There are so many acts/genres to choose from on the Bandcamp site, and when I discover something new that is amazing or catchy, I buy it. It is such a good feeling to help support musicians who just want to be heard. And even better is finding new stuff from bands I already like.

Her are a few works I highly recommend, and plan to buy soon:


  • Night Lines by Cuushe. Check out their album "Butterfly Cases". I loved it so much when I first heard it, that I bought the cd and the digital.
  • Leave You by Elastic Sleep. There is a definite Lush influence in this Irish band's debut. I want the vinyl too, but I'll be happy with just the digital for now.
  • Demos EP by Cherry Crush. I have had several of this band's offerings in heavy rotation for awhile now.
  • EP by Muscle Beech. A fun bunch of surf songs, perfect for this upcoming summer, whether you live near a beach or not!
  • Reminisce by Evil Needle. Jazzy instrumentals that were sent to my in box by HW&W Records. Check out the label's other stuff too ( I recommend Mike Gao and Stwo, among others).
