Going to try and do something different, beginning this week--I usually play a smattering of new music on each week's show; to encourage the listener to investigate further into the artist, I'll link the titles of those new tracks to the artist's website, or their MySpace page, etc. Keep in mind that on many of these pages there are embedded music players within, so music may start to play when you load their page, just so you know. Wouldn't want anyone to be confused as to why, for instance, two songs are playing on top of each other during my show (presuming, perhaps erroneously that you listen to my show)!...and if you end up becoming a fan of their music, please let them know where you heard/found 'em!
The final track of the first hour is something new from Andrew Bird. I don't know if he consciously sets out to do this, but he sure has a knack for the thoughtful, wistful song (his whistling only adds to that perception). I came across this link which features Bird's discussing his thought processes as he was organizing the ideas and music which eventually came together as the song "Oh No." I found it very interesting, and it added another layer of appreciation to my enjoyment of the song. Perhaps you'll like it, too:
