Live Music From The Underground

[pressuredroptv]

Some shots from our 2015 live session at KXSF studios with Rich Girls. Just heard that singer/guitarist Louisa Black has died. Am so saddened as she was such a force singing and playing guitar. She took a chance on us as we were just starting out and despite technical issues it still is one of my favorite sessions because of her electric presence. Her light lives on in her music. Not too late to check that out-

I know I have not posted in a while but the election took something out of me. I'm not making excuses but it required a long recovery. I kept wanting to listen to new music but couldn't handle much new information. It was like I could not fit new sources of joy into my being until I exorcised the past. I am not completely done, and it might take a long time to fully recover, but finally I can welcome new soundz into my consciousness. That said I am excited about this playlist. There is so much interesting, weird and catchy music in here. I took out the retro rediscoveries in favor of the new because right now I personally need optimism and new releases is where I go for that. Art is my oxygen and we all know this virus attacks respiratory system. By no means is this an end of the year list or the music/bands I have listened to most this year list or any other list other than my attempt to bring attention to new music we like over here in bot-free music discovery land.
