Lunch Money Gang // Cereal for lunch

These dudes are legit, but most important they are fun to listen to. Every song is worth the listen, 3:25AM is one of my favorites. I don’t listen to a lot of new hip hop, mostly the old stuff but this is a breath of fresh air. Thanks to Lunch Money Gang for sharing via twitter.

Get all the jams on Bandcamp for free.

Sonny & The Sunsets



One of my favorites, Sonny & The Sunsets is set to release Longtime Companion out 6/26. Every song on the forthcoming record was written during and is about his break up with his wife of ten years. Loving this pedal steel guitar vibe of Pretend You Love Me. This will be my front porch anthem of the summer. Now, I just need a front porch. Turn this up. (more info)

An accidental find // Jennifer O’Connor


Stumbled on this artist searching for Jenny O tunes a few weeks ago. Brooklyn lost recordings from 2000. Feels right.

Cold Specks // Holland



Stumbled on this beautiful song from Cold Specks via Mute Records. Soulful tune for an early morning. Look for the album 5.21.12.
