I’ve been making and throwing around a mix every early January since 2003 or so. Despite the name, there is no theme, other than a bunch of great tunes I’ve been listening to over the last year. It was a more difficult this year to pick a selection of tunes, because I’ve been churning out [...]

Midlake, The Courage of Others, February 2 Midlake’s 2006 Album, The Trials of VanOccupanther, has been a favorite of mine for a couple years now. This is a 21st Century Texas band channeling Fleetwood Mac, singing about things that happened in 1893 and keeping it all highly listenable. Live in Portland, March 6th, Wonder Ballroom [...]
In September 2007, I made my first trip to the fabled Austin, TX, to attend the Austin City Limits festival in Zilker Park. Among the 30+ acts I saw that weekend was Steve Earle, a long-time favorite of mine. At the time we were in town for ACL, Steve Earle was about to release his [...]
