Hey there! Baltimore is hoppin' tonight with some sweel shows at two swell venues. The Talking Head has what is sure to be a stand out show with Jukebox The Ghost, Pete & J, and Pretty & Nice.

"Afterthought" rocks a bit more and is a little darker, but it's got the same shimmery feel to the guitars and vocals. Swivel Chairs [...]
The following mp3s are from Swivel Chair's The Slow Transmission. "Afterthought" has a typical indie-rock sound, as do many of the tracks on the CD. But I prefer the band's mellower acoustic side,... **Click on the link to read the full post, download mp3s, and comment.**
