Super World Indie Tune Of The Day 03.04.2020: Gary Olson – “Giovanna Please”.

Super World Indie Tune Of The Day: Doctor Jelly and Mr. Sky
Skyjelly – Accidents. Super World Indie Tune Of The Day – 08.09.2018. The song is a bit of a masterpiece, all high floating vocals, driving distorted guitars, ghosts, glitches, funky bitches, magic mushroom quiches [that’s enough bitches rhymes.

Not in the least. “Kommen Und Gehen” is another songwriting masterclass – simply perfection from the wonderfully melodic vocals, the harmonies and especially…
Ratboys? Go figure.
Ratboys – Figure (Topshelf Records) photo by Johnny Fabrizio This is “Figure” by Chicago’s Ratboys (Julia Steiner and Dave Sagan). Displaying an almost obscene devotion to melody, these folks view the world with at least one arched-eyebrow and they write songs that make you feel happy to be alive. The deliriously brilliant video was made…
Gabriel Kahane creates magic on a train
Gabriel Kahane – “What If I Told You” (Nonesuch) Travelogue is a wonderful LP by THe Human League. It’s also a film, book, or illustrated lecture about the places visited by or experiences of a traveller. It’s also a stock-in-trade device of the folk artist, the wandering mistral, the poet and the corner house bore….
