"Real Life" - Kym Campbell by Sunset in the Rearview Sunday is the perfect day for acoustic music, so Kym Campbell came across my radar at just the right moment. In addition to naps, good food, relaxing, walking around the house in socks, and watching movies, Sunday is for listening to good, calm music. This song fits right in. I'm digging it. Kym Campbell is originally from Seattle, but is currently living in Australia. She's just released her second EP, Preview , and just wrapped up [...]
My goodness, it seems like it's been ages since we published our last seasonal listening guide, but it really wasn't that long ago that the Summer Guide helped many a waverider through a festive weekend of hot backyard bar-b-ques and beer. But now with the days getting shorter, the nights getting cooler and a different scent in the air, it's time to look towards the next season and our Ripple suggestions to bring in the coming months. Of all the seasons, autumn is without a doubt my favorite. There's just something about nature in autumn as [...]
As I continue an almost-endless effort at trying to get caught up on the music sent in, we've made it up to stuff that arrived in July so there's hope. Thanks to all the artists, labels and hired hit men for their patience. Comments will be brief, but the music is what matters anyway. • • • • Sounding much more musically polished than his 18 years, Portland's Jacob Magers released his debut EP Pendulums, which he wrote and recorded a while a high school senior. His music is influenced by the [...]
Where have I been? Well, just as I was getting myself back together from the China trip, my computer decided it would only boot up in Safe Mode. Not good. It took some time to get all my files to a safe location and then begin the long process of formatting the hard drive and reinstalling all the programs and stuff. I won't bore you with the geeky details. It's like someone telling you about their surgery-all you really want to know is that it all came out OK. And it did [...]
Aunque es originaria de Seattle, en los Estados Unidos, Kym Campbell reside actualmente en Australia, en donde ha grabado su primer Ep "So Alive", un disco compuesto por 8 temas que fusiona elementos de música tradicional con folk o reggae, en donde no faltan instrumentos como la harmónica o el ukelele, resultando un sonido con mucha personalidad y sin duda muy interesante. Esto ha hecho que goce de cierta popularidad en Australia, en donde sus canciones han sonado frecuentemente en las radios y las críticas han sido muy positivas. Actualmente se encuentra realizando una gira australiana y tiene [...]

Perhaps the summer isn't such a bad thing after all. Yesterday I wrote a guest post at Music is Art that expressed my longing for winter and summer's end. I complained about the heat and incessant bugs flying around when all I wanted was a breath of fresh, cool air. Well, I got it in the form of Kym Campbell , a US expatriate who now lives in Australia. Kym writes and performs warm surf/folk songs that may be reminiscent of Jack Johnson or Xavier Rudd with her own personal touch and flavor. The result, [...]
Kym Campbell is a very talented Acoustic singer/songwriter from Australia (originally from Seattle). She recently released her debut 8 track EP titled, * So Alive *, which is available on iTunes now for only $7.92. After stopping by Kym's myspace page & website , I definitely felt that her music was worth sharing. She has a great, refreshing voice. Below are two cuts off of her EP which she has made available for free download. Kym Campbell - "Free Flowing" | Box.net [...]
In case you've not noticed: SquirrelFood got an upgrade this week! It's not complete, there are bits here and there that need tweeks, but I like it better than the old brown, don't you? I've also added the SquirrelFood twitter feed ( follow me here ) to the sidebar- you might find extra downloads, links, and stories there. I'm stoked about the new BTE in this week's mix, as well as DMB and Streets. Yeah, looks like Mike Skinner 's fed up with labels and albums, and is just giving away stuff he creates via his twitter [...]
