Episode 5: Spotlight: My Light Sweet Fire
Sorry about the long wait, guys, I’ve been busy with a lot of things lately. I also apologise for any oddities you may notice in the show as it was recorded live and if I remember properly I had a couple of issues with the microphone during the show. All that aside I would like [...]
Robin Grey – The Finchley Waltz
Enter Robin Grey, an awesome folk artist from Britain! This song in particular has some awesomely deep observations about life, I love it. I particularly like the way everything is told in a pseudo-story-like style, everything leads into the next thought, it just flows beautifully. I, for one, enjoy complex acoustic guitar picking patterns behind [...]
Onalaska – Bird in the Night
I’ve got a nice bonus track here for you: Bird in the Night by Onalaska from their album You and the Fishermen. It’s a really nice sort of acoustic pseudo-rock that I really enjoy; it is fairly mellow and reminds me of Simon and Garfunkel. (although you may not agree) I really like the picture [...]
Episode 4: Spotlight: Jeff Schram
Today we’re listening to Jeff Schram and New York-based Blues guitarist. He is said to sound like a cross of The Racontours, 70’s Eric Clapton, and the Foo Fighters. I would say he sounds like Clapton, John Mayer, and the Martial Arts. Either way you have a great sound coming from this talented guitarist/vocalist.

The album we will be listening to [...]

Josh Woodward – She Dreams in Blue
Say hello to Josh Woodward, another indie singer-songwriter. If you’ve noticed I’ve been posting a lot of these types of artists, mostly because they are awesome. Josh Woodward, however, doesn’t exactly fit into the “singer-songwriter” category, he is one but his music is widely experimental. He plays all sorts of music…just check out this song, [...]
Jonathan Coulton – I Feel Fantastic
Check this out, its Jonathan Coulton, he’s awesome. Just check out this song and you’ll agree.
