Hey Sydney, I’ll Be There

Sydney (I’ll Come Running) by Brett Dennen (download here) (Buy from Amazon) A great bouncy song by Brett.  It’s no wonder that he’s signed to Jack Johnson’s label because hearing this song is similar to how I felt when i first heard Brushfire Fairytales album.  So good.

The Prettiest Thing by The Avett Brothers (download here) Great little folk song originally written by David Childers. The refrain says it all: “I can’t remember what we talked about, i just remember your face. The prettiest thing i had ever seen.” Also has a really cool video.

This is the Marriage of Heaven and Hell

Mardi Gras by Surprise Me Mr. Davis (download here) (Buy from Amazon) This is the marriage of heaven and hell and it’s done by The Slip. The band that’s called Surprise Me Mr. Davis is actually The Slip plus one other dude. They’re all Boston guys. This is a great tune.

Middle Brother

Middle Brother by Middle Brother (download here) (Buy from Amazon) This is a one of the better folk indie songs i’ve heard this year. Maybe because i’m a middle child and i want to make my parents, kids and country proud too.

A Little Voice

Little Voice by Rebekah Higgs (download here) (Buy from Amazon) This is a cute little song. Reminds me of the “Our House” song from the 70′s in the beginning. The 28 year old Canadian singer has put together a good little tune here.
