NPR's First Listen program has quickly become one of my most frequently visited sites. I didn't realize until this year that those folks at NPR really know their music!
First Listen is a program that provides full-length streams of albums before they are released. They feature a couple albums a week and cover all genres. Usually there's *at least* one that piques my interest. It's a great way to learn about new artists, too.
So please, join me in using this fantastically awesome website:

Side note: I'm currently listening to the new Bright Eyes' album 'The People's Key'. Great thus far; I suggest you take a listen.

Coachella Fail
So since Coachella tickets are sold out, and I snoozed for too long due to uncertainty, I won't be going. And therefore decided it'd be pretty upsetting to discover all of the awesome artists I didn't yet know.
That explains why there were only a few days of the 'Ode to Coachella' series. Sorry my friends!

Ode to Coachella: Day 2
The Black Keys - 'Tighten Up'
1.18.2011
Ode to Coachella: Day 1
Kings of Leon - 'Ragoo'
So I decided I'll post one video every day, featuring a song by an artist performing at Coachella 2011. I'll go in sequential order as they're listed on the official poster (see previous post). But just one each day... we can't overindulge with too much candy, now can we?
Cheers!
