Winter Jamz
Its that time of the year. The stockings are all hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that sir St. Nick will soon be here. Time for Christmas parties and ugly sweaters. Well, not ugly sweaters here in famously hot Columbia, SC, but that shouldn’t get your spirits down. Egg nog and Christmas-scented candles [...]

The Sea Wolf Mutiny When bands record Christmas songs it can often come off cheesy and half-hearted. With The Sea Wolf Mutiny’s version of “Jesus Christ The Apple Tree” they not only chose a Christmas song that sometimes gets lost and deserves more attention in the Advent season, [...]
I know it has seemed like Spring for about a month now, but it won’t be here until March 20 so we have to sulk in the last week or so of Winter. Rocky Votolato-What Waited For Me Rocky Votolato will bring his rainy day Northwestern folk to New Brookland Tavern this Friday March 11 [...]
Middle Brother-Blue Eyes Middle Brother-Blue Eyes So we got the best shot from the super hip indie buzz folksters Monsters of Folk, now we have a new folk super group on our hands in Middle Brother. Middle Brother is made up of the frontmen of Deer Tick, Dawes and Delta Spirit. Their new album spanks [...]
Is it baseball season yet? I’m done with winter! I’m holding out hope that we’re going to see Spring sooner rather than later, so here are my “Almost Spring” jamz. Barton Hollow -The Civil Wars The Civil Wars’ new album ‘Barton Hollow’ was on my most anticipated of ’11 list that somehow never got posted. [...]
Joni Mitchell-A Case of You Joni Mitchell-A Case of You I’ve never been the biggest Joni Mitchell fan, but Meredith bought this record on vinyl at Horizon Records because we’ve been a huge fan of this song for about five years now. It’s one those songs that is heartbreakingly good and one that everyone should [...]
Jessica Lea Mayfield-Kiss Me Again I heard Jessica Lea Mayfield a while back on my Pandora Everybodyfields station and it was this song and I loved it. I tried to remember her name and the name of the song, but it ended up slipping my mind and I never went and checked out more of [...]
According to clinical studies, last week was the most depressing of the year. It’s cold as all get out and you’ve hit that low after the holiday season. Don’t give yourself hell and make it worse by listening to William Fitzsimmons. It’s going to be alright! Spring is right around the corner and you’ll be [...]
The Wizard by Black Sabbath Lately I’ve been wanting to listen to nothing but Black Sabbath. I think I’m wearing down the grooves in my old LP’s pretty quickly. This song has been stuck in my head for a few days now and I thought I should at least share it with someone else. Pregnant [...]
I have zero will to write tonight since I’ve had a sort of long evening, so I apologize for lack of explanation for my song choices. I still hope you enjoy these songs, as well as the bands, and explore further into them. Good night! Abandon Love by Drakkar Sauna The Upstanding Sons and Daughters [...]
I Want this Cyclops – Destroyer Destroyer is, by far, my favorite band. I listen to them all year long, but find myself drawn more to them during winter than any other season. Dan Bejar has a voice that draws away the cold weather blues. His verbosity, along with ethereal song writing, create a warm [...]
