No. 22 / Spring 2013 April 7, 2013 08:40
This Spring 2013 mix will hopefully get you into a toe-tapping mood when transitioning into some warmer weather. It's filled with some great artists that we featured in our previous mixes, like Devendra Banhart, Born Ruffians, Alex Winston, Kishi Bashi etc. They just keep coming out with some great stuff, can't get enough of it. When we were adding songs to this mix, we've realized a lot of the songs we were adding featured female vocalists. Yay for talented ladies out there who are making some great music!
On a side note, I think Cocovan is pretty much the best name ever. ( try to pronounce it in French)
If you can catch Kishi Bashi live, I'd suggest you go. He's fantastic and mesmerizing. Also, I stumbled onto this the other day. All I can say is if this is the music elementary school kids listen and sing to these days, we have a bright future ahead of us.
