Mongrel Heart – Broken Bells
SHOW DATE: Saturday, October 9
SHOW TIME: 4:30 PM @ the AMD stage
I blame this new found love of Broken Bells on Eklektikos, a radio show on our local NPR station. A few months ago I first heart it – Mongrel Heart. It’s always sounds to me like a “sandwich song,” where the beginning and the end are [...]
Rooks – Shearwater

I don’t remember where. I had never heard of them before, so I started digging up some of their tunes [...]
A.M. 180 – Grandaddy

You’ll also note that I intended to look a little deeper into his previous band Grandaddy, and friends, I have done just that. Pretty cool stuff, although a bit different than his current [...]
