They Just Get To Me

I feel like I've been a blogging fool this past day. All my dancing and music thoughts have been pent up or something.
Anyways, I wanted to share some songs with you that are getting to me. Making me listen to them over and over because there is something more there that just gets to my very fiber.

1. Jeremy Messersmith's "Love You to Pieces"



2. We Are the Willows "A Family. A Tree."



3. Feist "Caught a Long Wind"


4. Dark Dark Dark "Wild Go"

We Are the Willows "Somewhere, Virginia"

Please go listen to We Are The Willow's new single "Somewhere, Virginia" (click link to go listen to it!). It makes me very excited to hear the new EP Places, due out Tuesday June 7th.

The EP release show is on June 4th at the Loring Theatre. The Daredevil Christopher Wright and Aria Souder are opening for him.

So while you wait in anticipation, you could spend some of your time checking out his blog. I think he's a pretty humorous dude.

We Are the Willows

"Come back to us, in Minneapolis" and "Let's drink some beer on the kitchen floor"

Some great moments from We Are the Willow's song "A Funeral Dressed as a Birthday"
I will, at random, belt these lines out. And the moment I graduate, I fully intend to drink some beers on the kitchen floor. 


This man, Peter Miller, looks as though he should have a deep, manlike voice, but no...not at all. His childlike voice takes some getting used to (or at least it did for me), but once you've come to terms with it, it only adds to his music. He was even named the Minneapolis Best Male Vocalist in 2010 by City Pages with that unique voice of his! So, somebody other than me must have taken a liking to his voice as well.

If nothing else, you can download his Daytrotter session (for free!) and give him a try.

I also recommend that you read his tour blog on City Pages. I think this guy is hilarious. So much so, that when I found his tour blog, I spent an hour or more going through and reading all of them. Maybe not the best use of my time but definitely an entertaining use of my time.

For those of you in the Twin Cities, he will be performing at The Beat Coffeeshop on April 14th at 7pm ($10 recommended donation for a fundraiser) and at the 331 Club on April 21st at 10pm (no cover). Maybe see you at one of these shows?

Anywho, you should let me know what you think.
