An Album a Day #2
This is not totally different for me but last month I accepted the challenge, like many others, to listen to and write short notes on an album a day during February 2016. I thought I would post up these here as part of my Todays Discovery theme.
Not in any order of preference here are the next 5 –

REBLOG – Listen: Pieces of Juno – ‘Valentine’
Earlier in the week, when covering one of the latest tracks from Dream Wife, we apologised for missing the boat a little when it comes to Valentine’s Day-related musical material.

There is a recent interview with Ellen Fullman in The Guardian, which I read recently which has some interesting comments about being a creative artist and the responses she got when she wore the metal skirt in public. Worth reading.
