Disclaimer: You May Find a Broken Link
So, there USED to be freenapster.com, and it USED to provide access to almost any artist's music. It was pretty awesome, and I linked ~90% of this blog's recommendations to that site. Now, apparently, Free Napster is no more. Booooooo.
It will be a long, on-going task of mine to redirect the links to somewhere you can hear the music, but in the meantime, if you click on a link that brings you to Napster where it asks you to sign in:
1) Be angry at them, for disrupting your chance to enjoy a good song
2) Google the song and still check it out, because it's awesome
If you have another source I should be using, please don't hesitate to send it my way. Email me for that, and any music recommendations, at tracy@groundwm.com. Thanks!
So, this time the lovely folks at
Pitchfork put together a list of Spring releases, and I captured some of my favorites below. Click

According to the awesome blog C
onsequence of Sound's
Pitchfork Festival Outlook, other artists anticipated include Neon Indian (yay!), Real Estate and The Smith Westerns.
All these artists have already had a song featured on the blog, but not
this song.
This song is another piece of fabulousness they created, and I (of course) wanted to share it with you! Click the song name to hear it, and click the artist to check out their previous posts.
LOVE good music.

How very Radiohead of them... In a good way, of course! They're touring with Grizzly Bear in June, so check to see if they're coming to a venue near you. They're not stopping in Chicago, most likely due to Grizzly Bear's July performance at Pitchfork's music festival. SO excited for that!
Enjoy!
