Tiny Desk Concert: Lightning Dust (and more…)
Over at NPR Music, I continue my reign of recent Tiny Desk Concert videos that I’ve helped put together. This week, is Lightning Dust, who put out one of my favorite albums of the year, Infinite Light. This video is infectious thanks to the wonderful harmonies of the two female singers, presumably sisters.
Take a look below, and read my little write up here on the website.
Also on NPR Music today, I contribute to the Take Five series’ Top 10 Jazz Records of 2009 list as part of our end of year coverage. Here I write about one of my favorite guitarists, Nels Cline — notably of Wilco fame — who put out a great jazz/rock/folk/minimalist album Coward.
Zee Avi: Tiny Desk Concert
Once again, another Tiny Desk Concert video that I edited and produced went up this week: This time it’s Malaysian-born singer-songwriter Zee Avi.

Reblogging: Flaming Lips First Listen
So I had the noble task of hearing the new album from The Flaming Lips, Embryonic, about a month ahead of time and then getting to write a short entry about it for NPR Music.
We are featuring the album on the website, in its entirety for the next few days, so take a listen and see what you think. Me? I think it’s awesome.
