Today's Quick Mention: If you don't have any plans today then you
should consider heading down to Waterloo Records at 4pm for a free
performance
from Spoon. My guess is that they'll mostly play new tunes, which will
be fun since their upcoming LP is one of the more anticipated releases of
2010.
Lara Meyerratken has been around for almost a decade working as a freelance
musician
(her
list of associates includes:
Ben Lee, Luna, Nada Surf, Crooked Fingers, Dar Williams, Luscious Jackson
and more), so I suppose it was only a matter of time before she decided to
do her own thing. Look for the self titled debut album from El May on
store shelves now. Enjoy.
:El
May - Don't You:
While I love as many claps, whistles and trendy guitar riffs
as I can get in my indie pop, I do have a great appreciation
for tracks like this that are comfortable with being ...
well, comfortable. Now, if only the weather would stay
great long enough for me to find a porch, something to prop
my feet up on and copy of El May's album to play in the
background.
