I Can't Keep All of Our Secrets - Rae Spoon

The broken-hearted catch still haunts the voice, sweetly sad amongst the relentless rhythm of programmed drum beats and analog synths. With I Can't Keep All of Our Secrets, Rae Spoon's most electronic adventure to date, the former folk artist moves ever deeper into the world of electronica and dance beats. But one foot remains firmly planted in country heartbreak. This is no shiny happy dance album.On first listen, it's easy to gloss over the deeply personal lyrics in favour of the upbeat vibes…See More

Thanks so much for the stream, Kyla! It made for some great morning listening. I think I first learned of Boca Chica around about the same time. While I really enjoyed Lace Up Your Workboots, I really REALLY enjoyed Get Out of Sin…

Thanks for posting this Barbara. I didn't realize that Boca Chica had a new record out. I first learned of them when their last one "Lace Up Your Workboots" came out and I loved it. Below is a stream of a song off that album and I…

Get Out of Sin City - Boca Chica

If good things really do come in threes, then Get Out of Sin City, Boca Chica's third full-length album, is the best of the good things. This is definitely my favourite Boca Chica album (so far).This album has everything I love in indie Americana music - gorgeous steel pedal that makes my heart swell while it makes me want to weep, boy-girl choruses, handclaps, a little twang, a lotta sass. And the band does it all so perfectly. This is a beautifully mature album that has me excited for the…See More

Frank Turner saves us all: Republik Nightclub (October 20, 2011)

Frank Turner is one of the people.Not content to be "one of five English guys with matching white shirts and bad teeth" entertaining the masses from the safety of the stage, he is a musician who tears down barriers and turns a concert into a bar room singalong. When Frank Turner insists that everyone join in (the hipsters up front, god love you, the curious who had nothing better to do tonight, the plus one's, the security guys, the…See More

Barbara Bruederlin commented on Turnstyled, Junkpiled's blog post 'Interview/Review - LA Artist to watch: Mark W. Lennon'

Upon hearing the first notes of "The River Stays the Same", I was hooked and the hook just grabbed deeper with further listening. Mark is an true talent, an authentic voice, and I need to hear more of his music! Great…

The Study of Animal Magicality - My Boy Rascal

I saw My Boy Rascal perform at a coffee house recently, an overnight stop on a cross-Canada tour with road buddy, Folk Thief . The acoustics of the room, combined with the escalating background chatter of a bustling coffee house, did not really allow for ideal listening conditions. My impressions of a…See More

You just have to keep surprising them with things like Rastafarian poets, Travis. Keep them on their musical toes.

Travis McClain commented on Barbara Bruederlin's blog post 'why I review albums'

The funny part, Barbara, is that I can't even seem to get my own family and friends to read my blog now while I'm alive to respond to them! Still, I hold out hope that it will eventually be that thing they appreciate one day.…

I lived outside of Vernon, British Columbia for about 5 years and our backyard was adjacent to a Provincial Park....My own connection to Handsome Dan's CD...:)

The Handsome Dan CD arrived yesterday. Put it on immediately, it played through and I hit repeat. It's exactly how you described it in your opening paragraph. Loved his voice too, very warm and inviting. Thanks
