Joanna Newsom - Have One On Me -2010

Joanna Newsom (born January 18, 1982) started taking piano lessons at a very early age and played for a couple of years, but switched to the harp at seven. Her approach to the harp, from the percussive aspects of her playing to her chord changes, was also influenced by West African and Venezuelan harp music, which she began studying at a folk music camp she attended in her early teens

The Frogs - My Daughter The Broad - 1996


The Frogs are an American rock music band founded in 1980, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, by brothers Jimmy and Dennis Flemion. The brothers mainly write and perform short, catchy pop songs, but they are also known for their improvised home recordings which are delivered in a comedic style, and often tackle controversial issues such as race, religion, and sexuality (notably homoeroticism). A history of strife has hindered the band, although a devoted fan base that includes many well-known musicians has supported the group.

Japanther- Rock 'n' Roll Ice Cream- 2010

So, I just realized that back in February Japanther released a new album without me noticing.
It's called Rock 'n' Roll Ice Cream.
This isn't just any Japanther album, because on this one drummer Ian Vanek and bassist Matt Reilly decided to throw a new member into the mix. The new member being Annie Sparrow, singer/guitarist for The Soviettes. I really like the track She's the One, it's Japanther at its cutest. But wait! The album ends with an even cuter cover of the very song performed solo by Sparrow herself. $100 Remix is an interesting take on $100 Cover that makes you do a different dance than most Japanther songs, and Not at War is just one of those songs that makes you do a Japanther thrash dance.
