Andrew's Blog Playlist of the Month


Hey guys this is a new thing I'm trying. I've gotten a few tweets and facebook messages asking to post the names of songs/artists that I've been playing on the blogs. So I figured this would be a good new addition to Andrew's Blog--a monthly playlist! This is a mixture of songs that you've heard in the background of my blogs as well as music that's inspiring me right now. I pretty much only use indie artists on the blog because of the recent major record label's crackdown of fair use on youtube, so this is a good way to get some of these amazing singer/songwriter's some exposure. Lastly, I of course urge you to BUY their music on itunes or emusic or whatever :D

"Folding Chair" -- Regina Spektor
"Summers" -- Loney, Dear
"San Francisco" -- Steve Tannen
"Failure" -- Laura Marling
"Animal" -- Miike Snow
"Actor Out of Work" -- St. Vincent
"Disappear" -- The Gabe Dixon Band
"The River" -- Anathallo
"Great God Bird" -- Sufjan Stevens
"Blood Bank" -- Bon Iver
"The Opposite of Hallelujah" -- Jens Lekman
"Tenuousness" -- Andrew Bird
"And the Hazy Sea" -- Cymbals Eat Guitars
"Feel" -- Jesse Harris
"Los Angeles, I'm Yours" -- The Decemberists
"Get Lonely" -- The Mountain Goats
