Music Tuesdays - Holy Roller by Thao and the Get Down Stay Down
It took me a little while to realize this is the same Thao [Nguyen] formerly of Thao & Mirah, whose songs I enjoyed. Love the band name "the Get Down Stay Down". I heard them perform this song on KCRW and I think I enjoy the energy of their live performance of the song a bit more than the record version, but this video just makes me smile.
Thao also has a really nice "Tiny Desk Concert at NPR Music" on YouTube that I enjoyed.

Music Tuesdays - Riptide by Vance Joy
I am really enjoying this as a nice start of summer song. I wasn't familiar with this artist before hearing the song, but I'm interested in finding some more Vance Joy songs now.
Coachella Music Week - Time To Run by Lord Huron
Since I'm a big fan of Lord Huron, you absolutely knew that I would put them in Coachella music week lineup. One of the bands I definitely would've seen were I at the festival.

Music Tuesdays - I'm On Fire by Shakey Graves
I just heard some songs by Shakey Graves recently, and I enjoy the minimalist, haunting, folk style. He is another artist out of Austin, just like Gary Clark Jr. is, although their styles are quite different.
I predict Aaron will hate this song.

Music Tuesdays - Perth by Bon Iver
Another song from the recent Bon Iver album, which I've enjoyed quite a bit. If you didn't like any of the previous Bon Iver songs, don't bother listening to this one (Aaron).
Music Tuesdays - Calgary by Bon Iver
Bon Iver is one of my favorite recent artists, and in honor of the self-titled new album that comes out today, here is the first single they've released for it.
Music Tuesdays - Beg Steal or Borrow by Ray LaMontagne
Douchey music alert: this is a very folksy, acoustic song... Aaron need not listen. Something about this song makes me feel like it should be in a cowboy movie.
