i think i just opened the cookie jar...

Its amazing how one seed can sew a path of discovery towards new great music. the internet is a musical sweet shop. and sometimes you eat a new sugary gum drop flavour and it brings you down a tanget of great finds. I had a particularly good one today... spawned from a recomendation of new music from my good friend nomar. all of a sudden within 20 mins i had discovered so much good music i wanted to burst.

http://www.myspace.com/rhondaharriscph - they had me at the first 5 seconds.... the littletown is a great starter

http://www.blackcabsessions.com/sessions.php- - simple, great idea with a lineup to die for

http://www.myspace.com/noahandthewhale and http://www.myspace.com/lauramarling - I found them a while back but their black cab session together (see link above) made me go back. It was worth it.


I'll write properly about this wkend but this burst of music reminded me of this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5Zoxf3G6u8 - I met and had a great converstation with the lads who play with this lady the night before her early afternoon session at EP. They told me their name and I promised to come see them play the next day. I never made it. Oh the regret.


I wish i had the same passion for my job that I had for finding new music... my world would be a better place.
