Nuggets 236 – Chug chug 5

Another ‘movin’ along’ mix featuring the usual suspects. I made this for friends who planned a road trip after getting married. The cover picture is one I took while in San Francisco last year. It’s the stairwell of  the fort under the bridge. The fort is very photogenic, a great spot to take wedding photos.

The Amazing start the playlist. Great tune, they are Swedish. The High Highs are from Brooklyn while Russian Red is the band headed by Lourdes Hernández who hails from Spain.

There you go, around the world in three songs.

In the video below James Vincent McMorrow looks uncannily like Charles Manson…

‘Tis the night before Laneways. I am looking forward to seeing Tame Impala, Real Estate, A Place To Bury Strangers, Japandroids and Cloud Nothings. I am also hoping to hear some of the lesser known local bands at the start of the day. I have enjoyed the couple of songs I have heard from the Eversons,

Pissed off I didn’t make it to the Woods gig last week. They played mid week in the shittiest venue in town. Bugger.

Meantime, here is what I have listening to recently. Will pop up a playable playlist soon.

I have been really enjoying new releases by The Babies following on from the live sets I put up earlier,  the alt-country sound of Beachwood Sparks and tracks from Childhood.
