New Music

One of the worst things about corporate radio and the iPod is that you are very rarely introduced to some new and exciting music. This is somewhat lessened by the soothing feeling of hearing something familiar, but still, you need new blood to keep it interesting.

So I was pleasantly surprised to hear M.Ward's latest album, "Transistor Radio". I first heard him in a performance with Bright Eyes and I thought, "wow, that guy doesn't sound like he looks." That's always a good sign.

If you don't know these two, give them a listen. It's good, American music.
