With soul and passion Bon Iver takes a traditional format in new directions. Skinny Love is my new favorite song.

Acoustic guitar, original lyrics, punk influences. Check out the song titled "Dope Fiend".

Buzzing Things is a wildly experimental new album released this week that combines acoustic guitar music, field recordings of nature sounds, sampled flies, abstract noises and a 2:15 world band radio static solo. Come for the guitar songs, stay for the weirdness.

A gritty story teller weaving tragedies, triumphs, smiles, and scorns with a charming voice and a folksy sound. She reminds me a bit of Mazzy Star, but that's only a first impression. Here's an in studio session with four streamable songs. Enjoy!

"im not sure what is a dream and what is real...i still can't say for certain if falling asleep is opening your eyes in the morning or closing them at night...i want love like love wants love..oxygen and drifting clouds. and im not scared to be alive...i write music because it feels like breathing. i sing because it is connection. would it all come out the same way again??
