Today is Friday, but because it's Good Friday, it seems a little more reverent and calm than a normal Friday. The weather has been warm, windy, and cloudy all day -- a bit ominous. I wanted to share a couple of artists that I've been listening to a lot lately.
The first is Local Natives. I know all you hip 24 year olds who hang out at The 5 Spot have known about them since you were, like, 12, but I just heard them for the first time a few weeks back on NPR's Tiny Desk series. I ended up getting the record, but this version of Wide Eyes remains my favorite:
The second is JT. Not Justin Timberlake. The original. It's so simple, refreshing, and corny -- I love it. This song is so peaceful, and it makes me lament the divorce of James and Carly each time I watch it:
The final is Land of Talk. I can't get enough of this girl's voice. It's so soothing, and is imperfect but perfect at the same time. This song suits the mood of today well:
Have a (good) Friday.
