Ear Candy of the Week – Linda Linda’s- NPR Tiny Desk Concert
My favorite punk-rock band of the moment happens to have a drummer who is 11 years old. These four young women hold their own as they deliver songs like Racist Sexist Boy, Cuántas Veces, and Talking To Myself. Ain’t no power like the power of the youth because the power of the youth don’t stop!
Drew Green – Good Ol’ Man
Being a father of two, this song hits home. Drew Green puts what we’re all feeling into words of his song, Good Ol’ Man. We’re all just trying to be the best version of ourselves, and more often than not, doing our best is the best we can do.

Golden Years- David Bowie
A little bit of a two for one: Revisiting one of my favorites for this week’s Ear Candy, Golden Years by David Bowie. There isn’t much to say about the song or the artist that hasn’t been said but it’s been on my mind recently because of its use in the movie A Knight’s Tale. […]

Changes- Langhorne Slim & The Law
As we come near the close of our first full year of quarantine, nothing really quite captures how I feel as well as the first line of Changes: “Things could be stranger, but I don’t know how.” The song lives up to its name, it gives me a feeling of growth, learning to appreciate what […]
