The Woody Pines

OK, this guy is just fantastic! If you every want to get down and dirty and do that ol' rag town butt kick, these are your boys. I have been listening to them since around Christmas time and they are simply amazing. I believe the singer/songwriter's name is Woody Pine but the band goes by the moniker, The Woody Pines... incredible!

What A Long Strange Trip it's Been, Here is Some Surfer Blood

Well, as some of you may or may not know, my wife and I are on an extended honeymoon in Europe and it has definitely cut into our available Wi-Fi time and, hence, contributed to a lack of posts here. I can't express to everyone enough how much I miss finding, and receiving, new music and we feel we have let what little readership we have down by not providing new material here. However, we have a hotel with free Wi-Fi for a couple of days, a luxury in these parts, and I will be writing to you from the most wonderful city of Saumur, France.

I have actually got to check out some various bands here and Surfer Blood is really standing out to me. I have spoken of these chaps before but there album is definitely worth mentioning twice. I also can't help to think how amazing the live show would be. The music is just full of energy and life and, quite simply, complete joy.

... I also hate how old I feel looking at that photo!
