6am Repeat is a recurring feature here at Folk Hive in which we stream the latest track that plays incessantly in the earbuds when we awake at that hour and imbibe massive amounts of coffee and cigarettes in preparation for the advancing day. Consider it your jam of the day — a sweet, sweet gift from me to you. I love you, dude. Best song about drugs and love with a mini-choir in the background there that I've heard in a long fucking time. [...]
A Tree Falls Productions , our little house concert series here in rural Massachusetts, has grown since we first presented Danny Schmidt in our living room, and so has its reputation: both of the headline performers for our upcoming Spring/Summer season concerts came to us, making booking as easy as checking the calendar and saying "yes, please!" Our newest performing space, a restored hundred year old carriage house just up the road, has ample room for 50+, and for our increasingly infamous potluck meals, and we're eager to fill the house, the better to support [...]

I get emails all day and night from people who want me to listen to their music and write about it. And most of the time, I listen to a few seconds then put it in the archive folder of my Gmail. Something happened the other day though. I was trying to empty my inbox, but instead opened an email from a New Haven based folk group named Plume Giant . I didn't remember seeing it in my inbox, so I read through it and listened to their attached song Fool Hall [...]
If my internet music blog was a baseball team, I feel like I would be a middle of the rotation starter, something like 14-8, ERA around three and three quarters. The evidence: I eat innings (my nearly uninterrupted streak of Lazy Saturdays). I struggle against left handers (I don't get bands that are ostensibly awful but that the critical community loves; see: Animal Collective). I pitch to contact (I love me a good remix). Most importantly for the metaphor (and this post), I have three go-to pitches: 1) Cut fastball = I think this album/band/song [...]
