WORST REQUEST OF THE WEEK
(Her) “Start playing some good old fashioned Southern rock or the Dixie Chicks because this sucks. I’m just kidding. But seriously, play some Dixie Chicks.”
WEDNESDAY 3-PACK
This week’s free three-song download of new music features:
Maps – To The Sky: My new favorite song and not coincidentally, the one that inspired the Dixie Chicks she-wolf to tell me how much I suck. Electronica-tinged dream pop from the UK.
Shake Some Action – I Can See Where This Is Going Now: Seattle power pop band with influences ranging from Big Star to the Hoodoo Gurus. Great straight-ahead rock and roll.
Andrew Bird – Fiery Crash: Quirky folk from the Chicago singer/songwriter/violinist.
