The Bright Baby Eyes of the Chickadee.

I nearly fell out of my chair the first time I heard Mountain Men. I'm not quite sure how they slipped past my radar, but I have fallen hard and fast for this trio. A sucker for harmonic, melodic folky sounds, these three make some of the sweetest music I've heard in a long time. The way their voices blend is a feat, and the result are honeyed tunes with folk, country and vintage influences. You can listen to their YouTube playlist here, I hope you love them as much as I do!

One of my other hobbies that I haven't really mentioned that much on here is playing music with my best friend, Kate. We try to hold little coffee shop performances every 3 months, and as much as practicing is time consuming, it's always super rewarding. Music was (and still is) my first love, and I really enjoy playing with Kate. We've been singing together for so long that we can kind of predict which harmony line the other will sing... If you want to here some music from Kate, you can find a bunch of videos on her Youtube. This one is a rough recording of a cover we did together. We want to do videos and real recordings, and I'll be sure to post here when we do!

These shots are from our performance at the beginning of July at Cuppa Joy. It's one of the best venues we've played in, intimate and perfect acoustics! In case you are wondering, Kate plays guitar and sings, and I play tambourine, egg shaker and sing.

I've fallen in love with The Like.

Seriously, can I be the 5th member?

Florence and the Machine is on repeat in my CD player,
a spot she's kept since I bought "Lungs".
Listen to her, and you might not want to stop.

thinking of you.

Yesterday I work both of my jobs....
and did not much else.
Bought Katy Perry's CD, which I suprisingly like a lot.
Also bought Coldplay, which of course, is amazing.
