Summer Song Of The Day
|
Artist: The Meat Puppets Song: The Whistling Song I know, the name conjures up some god-awful death metal band, but the Meat Puppets are in fact adept weavers of folk, cowboy blues, and rock. Add whistling into the mosh, and we’ve got ourselves a real winner. |

Summer Song Of The Day
Artist: Jurassic 5
Song: Concrete Schoolyard
Sometimes J5 can get a bit sanctimonious, but in this song they’re at their warm and fuzzy throwback best.

Artist: Dire Straits

Summer Song Of The Day
Artist: The Verve Pipe
Song: The Freshman
I know it’s a gorgeous, sunny, endorphin-raising day (at least where I am), but for some reason, this little melancholy bit of nostalgia’s been stuck in my head all morning. Whatever happened to the Verve Pipe? Can we swap them for Nickleback? Please?

Because there’s no such thing as too much TEB. Am I right? I’m totally right.

Aussies making wild, sax-heavy, G.Love-esque music. “Nuff said.
