    Posted on Wednesday August 19th, 2009 at 10:49 in baseball, todd snider, champagne, amie street, asmw

    I don’t know about you, but Champagne is usually not my preferred drink of choice. I usually go for something a little harder and not so bubbly (rum anyone?) but this song by Amie Street artist Todd Snider is definitely worth a listen to (as is...

    Today’s ASMW post is one hot off the presses (as in, it was just released YESTERDAY) by Devonshire surfer/singer-songwriter Ben Howard. From a first listen it seems to be a sort of English Jack Johnson which isn’t bad at all. In fact, one...

  • ASMW – Those Darlins

    Posted on Wednesday July 8th, 2009 at 14:02 in rockabilly, amie street, asmw, those darlins

    The cool thing about Amie Street is the bevy of new and undiscovered groups that they manage to come up with. There is a ton of stuff on AS that iTunes can’t get anywhere near… and the prices are good to boot. For instance, consider this...

    As its the first name of my Oldest Daughter, the name of the Newest Album by Gypsy Tailwind caught my eye. Grace is full of some good rock tinged folksy music that borders more on Country then Folk. However, with soulful lyrics, amazing vocals and th...

    Posted on Thursday June 4th, 2009 at 15:29 in amie street, asmw, trampled by turtles

    Ok, so I’m a day late, but I’m not a dollar short. Its amazing what you can find on AmieStreet and todays ASMW is another good example. Yes, I picked this group simply because of their name, however, Trampled by Turtles bluegrass tunes ar...

    Our third daughter is supposed to be joining us any day now (if I had my preference it would have been earlier this week). I came across this little number by Taken By Trees while searching for another artist (that Amie Street ended up not having). T...

    In honor of the worm of the day, Conficker, I’ve decided that I CRUSH EVERYTHING. Or least, I CRUSH BUGS! This ditty is from Geek turned songster, Jonathan Coulton is pretty upbeat and a good way to wile away the dreary April Fools 2009. Maybe...
