I don't know about where you are, but we are having a very mild winter. Not so mild that I should have been eating at outdoor burger joint Shake Shack last night, but I was and is where I snapped the picture that is now this week's cover art. There's lots of good new music on here, including the returns of a few favorite bands. Dig in: DOWNLOAD WINTRY MIX 2.03.2012 Tracklist: 1. Burning Hearts - Into the Wilderness [...]

Tweet I'm not sure who Angela Penhaligon (she is Piney Gir, or PG if you are into unfunny classifications) hired to do her PR but jaysus they are persistent. So much so that they penetrated all spam controls employed to halt their advances. Cursory listens were given with each missive, more out of the thought that such aggressive suggestionism must have been because the goods were mind-boggling. Well they are not but on that 6th try 'Stay Sweet' charmed our puffed-up [...]

Piney Gir From: London, United Kingdom Three years ago I stumbled upon a whimsical little ditty titled 'Blixa Bargeld's Bicycle' by a little known singer who called herself Piney Gir . It came from a world where Syd Barrett rubbed shoulders with Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins and it charmed the pants off me. Since then Piney, otherwise known as UK based Kansas born Angela Penhaligan, has released a couple of well received but hum drum albums none of which have quite lived up to the [...]

The Piney Gir Country Roadshow - new album Launch gig at London's Lexington on September 7th Piney Gir taunts traditional country music with a big city edge and Jesus Wept is a nod to Piney's strict religious upbringing and her urge to walk the line between naughty and nice. There comes a time when everyone should question their faith and Piney (with the help of her trusty Roadshow) has channeled that into a record. A record that's [...]

We're in indieland today, featuring a handful of new and new-to-me artists and labels who might generally be overlooked by the typical folkfan. Which is sort of the point, really: our ongoing New Artists, Old Songs series has always aimed to introduce you to under-the-radar artists, and since radar is subjective, the acoustic side of the hipster canon is certainly fair game. Especially when even in-genre, these folks are still struggling to make a name for themselves. Here's hoping, as always, that you'll help spread the word. [...]

The shops may think that Christmas starts in mid October, but we all know that in reality you should only start preparing on 1st December with that first choccy in the advent calendar. So as a way of starting off the musical advent (and I'm in no way religious, but enjoy a reason for a gluttonous festival as much as the next man), we have a little Christmas/winter indie mixtape from the kind folk over at XO Publicity . A little change from the Slade/Wham/East 17 that you"re all hearing elsewhere. We've always done a [...]
I spent my thanksgiving holiday watching all three seasons of Mad Men so I could finally understand the hoopla over season 3's finale (and to appreciate BWE's brilliant recaps). After countless hours watching Jon Hamm being a terrible human being but not hating him because he is still f'in Jon Hamm, I realized that I very much enjoyed the show's credit music. It stands out in an almost eerie way
