Chug chug chug.

The pic is Anthony Perkins and Audrey Hepburn from Green Mansions. It’s a terrible film .

This mix gets off to a cracking start with an excellent track from D. Vassalotti, then a recently released but old track from The Love Language before the keyboards of Polica start up.

Crystal Stilts have another album out. As you can hear in the interview below, they have taken their time. I love that dreamy jangly sound even though they can be a bit bloodless.

Bingo Trappers is an established Dutch lo-fi band. Manual for a Safe Trip is an excellent track. It’s taken from their 2001 album Juanita. Here it is on Spotify. https://play.spotify.com/album/5Gc39v0xekzfIHrxbQrMuz

Nuggets 219 – C+W 10

Old school and new school country / alt country here. I love the cover picture – Bo Diddley of course.

Boca Chica deserve more fame. I can’t find any good videos, so here is a Bandcamp widget instead.
