Music Recs Round You Show Me Yours

[icepixie]

It's about time for another music recs post. However, I have a problem: I haven't heard much new that's good lately. :(

Instead, I'm asking you to rec music to me! What do you like? What have you been listening to of late? Links are great, but just names and titles are good too. Lay 'em on me.

(...Okay, I lied about having nothing. Possibly I've rec'ed her before, but if I haven't, try out Lucy Kaplansky, especially these two: This Is Home, Ten Year Night.)

I love music rec posts! And that website is awesome - immediately bookmarked. I hate sending people to YouTube to listen to a song.

Two songs I heard for the first time the last few weeks I'm in love with: Mumford & Sons, "Little Lion Man" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Little+Lion+Man/2ycia8) and Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros - "Home" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Home/2UWEeu).

And kind of going off of your recs (and those songs were lovely; I'm definitely going to see if my library has any of her CDs), here's a few female vocalists: Joker's Daughter - "Nothing is Ever What it Seems" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Nothing+is+Ever+What+it+Seems/2wJ5Q6), Laura Gibson - "Come by Storm" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Come+By+Storm/2p06tY), Laura Veirs - "Wide Eyed, Legless" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Wide+Eyed+Legless/2op4sR), Anna Ternheim, "You Mean Nothing to Me Anymore" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/You+Mean+Nothing+to+Me+Anymore/2grgaa), and Frida Hyvönen, "Today, Tuesday" (http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Today+Tuesday/98b3).

(I hope all these links work.)

Grooveshark is amaaaaaaazing. Best thing to hit the interwebs since Napster.

Yay, another Lucy fan! She's totally great. If you're interested in more like her, my recs posts from this year is pretty much all singer/songwriter/folk along her lines. (Some of the older links may work; I don't think I discovered Grooveshark until March or so.)

All your links did work; thanks! I liked the Joker's Daughter song, as well as "Little Lion Man." I think I actually rec'ed a Laura Veirs song earlier this year; I'm pretty sure it was "July Flame," which was an iTunes free single at some point. She's pretty nifty.
