One of These is Not Like the Others

Celebrating new music by a pair of my favorite artists this month, and one from an old standby that hit me in a good place as I was rambling along the Eastern Seaboard this week. Both Old 97's and They Might Be Giants released new records this week, and while neither record breaks much new ground, fans of both will be perfectly happy to add these new tunes to their catalogs.

And I was sorta blown away by 'The Road' from Emmylou Harris' new album, Hard Bargain. Yeah, that Emmylou Harris. Go out and help the economy grow, boys and girls. Lord knows our friends in the Tea Party are counting on you.

I'm slated to see TMBG when they head to Boston.

And I'm digging Spotify. It's worth 5 to 10 bucks a month.

We might have a winner for Mother of the Year award: Dunn said she couldn't understand "how her 10-month-old daughter tested positive for cocaine since she doesn't breast feed her."

Further to rob's post, some guy came up with the stage name Hoodie Allen (which I think is pretty funny) and has a very radio/frat-party friendly new song.
