Grooveshark picks for March

Artist: Andrew Bird
Album: Break it Yourself

Why I love it: It's equal parts folksy and
singer songwriter with a little twist of a
world music sound thrown in.

For fans of: Punch Brothers, M. Ward

Artist: Charles Bradley

Album: No Time for Dreaming

Why I love it: I recently found this guy
because of this post by Caitlin. The way
she described him made me curious about
his sound, so I did my GS research and I
was not disappointed. This whole album
is just so soul-ful. If that's a word? 

For fans of: James Brown, Sam Cooke,
Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings

Bonus: Charles Bradley & His
Extraordinaires are coming to Workplay
Friday April 20th. Tickets are $15. I'm still
looking for a plus one...any takers? 

Artist: Gold Leaves

Album: The Ornament

Why I love it: It's pretty dreamy.
And maybe just a little bit country.

For fans of:  Great Lake Swimmers,
Band of Horses

Artist: Pretty Lights

Album: Making Up A Changing Mind

Why I love it: It's funky. And it has such
a solid beat that it made its way from just
being a part of my life at the climbing gym all
the way to my work tunes. I mean I need
psych at work, too. 

For fans of: Big Gigantic, Mimosa

Artist: Delta Spirit

Album: Delta Spirit

Why I love it: Ok, so no this doesn't sound 

like the original Delta Spirit that I fell in love 

with their Americana, soul and a little bit of 

funk sound. This is definitely more rock. Yet 

I still like it. I don't love it as much as the old 

stuff, but still, sometimes change is good. 

For fans of: The Strokes, Arcade Fire

Bonus: Delta Spirit will be at Workplay 

Monday April 9th. Tickets are $14.

(Technically this isn't on GS, but I've been streaming it here)
