Mix Tape Radio: Episode 036

Episode 36 starts off with some good ol' Townes Van Zandt (which then leads into an artist sampling good ol' Townes Van Zandt) and before the tape ends with a song that perfectly captures how I would like my own funeral to go, you'll hear Small Wonder, Junior Kimbrough, Shout Out Louds and a whole bunch more.

Mix Tape Radio: Episode 051

Episode 51 kicks off with an acoustic version from a band with a long long long name and closes out with a 'previously unreleased, momentarily released, once again unreleased' Shakey Graves tune. In between those you'll hear Sufjan, Two Gallants, Hiss Golden Messenger, and a whole bunch more, so I'll just stop listing so you can just get listening.

FANDCAMP: "CHARADES"

“Sounds identical to The Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses," in the best possible way. These guys were doing worship of the body way before Bon Iver with "Heavenly Father" and Hozier with "Take Me to Church." The lyrics envelop you completely. They're cold and heartbroken, but hint at a familiar yearning for hope.”
