Song We Like: Sunday Morning II by Paul Jacobs

A big deep sound and a big deep voice, for when you need more depressed-dance-thump in your life. Who doesn’t? We love this artist. And definitely search up youtube for his video. You can’t do animation like this guy can

Song We Like: American Fag by UNI

A truly beautiful song about the generation that took back sexual identity for real. Sound-wise, taking on this much David Bowie reference would be risky for less-skilled musicians, but they seem to have as much talent as style

Song We Like: Wanna Go to Heaven by the Piggies

John and I parsed out these chords so that we could do a cover (B, E, F#), but we sounded totally lame-o. As John points out in the podcast, badass can’t be faked. The Piggies got it

Song We Like: Space Buggy #1 by The Space Buggy

Computers are here to stay – we think, probably – so it’s time to invite them into your band. The Space Buggy is a really cool hybrid of the actual and the digitall, whose music hovers just on the other side of being understandable. There are computers in there, certainly, but also people banging things and playing things. THAT is the future

Song We Like: Until You’re Gone by Blue Heart’s Revelry

From Easton, PA, a banjoy-grateful dead-meets-wilco sound, plus a fiddle (not rock violin. Fiddle) that steals the show.

Song We Like: Sittin in the Middle by Francie Moon

Francie Moon continues to express her true self, sittin in the middle   of sweet and bitter, in the middle of happy and mean, in the middle of heavy rock and the kind of music that goes oo-ooo-ooo

Song We Like: The Hills by Possum

Great music for jumping around, in a masculine kind of way. You’ll also get a good, diverse jumping workout because the tempo changes about 11 times. Enjoy

Ep 56: UNI, Paul Jacobs, Indigo de Sousa & Ethan Baechtold, Christoper Coleman, Brower
