Today' song is "Hollow" by Linda Draper. This song is off her seventh album Edgewise which is out now. The haunting song is the result of a conversation that Linda overheard on an airplane. A mother was discussing how her step-son needed to give up his dream of becoming a writer, saying he needed to “get it out of his system.” Listen below and for more information check out her official website , Facebook , and Twitter pages.

New York-raised singer Linda Draper was inundated with music at an early age. Her father was an accomplished guitar virtuoso, who studied under Andres Segovia-while the rest of her family played or sang in various circumstances throughout her youth. She picked up a guitar in her teens and began to write her own songs. She would eventually come to share the stage with artists such as Kimya Dawson, Regina Spektor, and Mike Doughty of Soul Coughing. She recorded 4 LP's with producer Kramer (Ween, Low) but decided to team up with fellow singer-songwriter Matt Keating for her latest record Edgewise, [...]

Singer-songwriter Linda Draper pens lean and spare songs full of atmosphere with elegant, every-note-in-the-right-place instrumentation. Draper's latest record is Edgewise, which released last week and notably rekindled her musical passions. "With this album, I feel I've come full circle," she says. "I feel myself returning to the roots that originally sparked my enthusiasm for music." Today we present the premiere of her second single from the new record, "Shadow of a Coal Mine".

Among all the new releases this week, it's hard to escape the one from Daft Punk . Their new album, Random Access Memories, is the first by the band in eight years. The 13-track record begins with a bang via its track "Give Life Back to Music", a funky, 702s-inspired song with trademark robot-style vocals. Shoulder-swaying and ethereal with strummed electric guitars, the song feels like an early Michael Jackson single mixed with the electronic auto-tuned Daft lyrics. Memories features guest artists like Pharrell Williams and The Strokes' Julian Casablancas. The new album from the [...]

"My earliest memories of vinyl are drawn from my parents' record collection that ranged from classical music like Bach, Mozart , Haydn, Fernando Sor, to folk music, like Peter Paul and Mary, Anne Murray, and Joan Baez. I can recollect with the most clarity Anne Murray's classic children's record, "There's a Hippo In My Tub" and listening to "Teddy Bear's Picnic" when I was around 5 or 6 years old. That was one of the first times that I could listen to a song on a record and truly get lost in the story that was being told. And I [...]

Ah, Flower Communion Sunday. Traditionally the last Sunday service before a Universalist Unitarian parish moves to a lay-led summer, the Flower Communion celebrates both the contributory nature of the UU community and the natural world by bringing the blooming world into the church at its last, and then letting it go back out again as we ourselves turn to the world of social justice and peace-making. The beauty and diversity of life - of our own, and the bounty of the land - is present in the rich cornucopia of the green-stemmed bounty. [...]
