Twofer Tuesday ~ Twin Sister
Twin Sister's "Ribbon Bow" and "All Around and Away We Go"
Feeling like floating in space a bit while smiling? Okay, Buzz Aldrin, here's the song for you: All Around and Away We Go. Some soft female vocals massage your ear-knuckles real nice and gently (ear-knuckles = ?? but I was going to say "earballs"...). Ribbon Bow is extremely catchy with its horns and dingalings. Oh, be right back, gotta go float away with some smiles again.
Lesson: Twofer Tuesdays are awesome, because it gives us TWO Twin Sister songs.

The Very Best: Warm Heart of Africa
Esau Mwamwaya seems like a good guy. Radioclit seems like a bad name. Together, they are a nice group, some would even called them The Very Best.
Esau's vocals with the production of Radioclit swirls hip-hop, funk pop, and Malawi traditional music. The group has worked with M.I.A. and Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend, and now they are doing a show with the latter. If you want to boogie, catch the Very Best with Vampire Weekend, Beach House, and four bottles of wine and thousands of Trader Joe's bags at the Hollywood Bowl on September 26.
I think "The Very Best" is a great name. When googling them, you may come across The Very Best of Dolly Parton or Chumba Wamba (now that's a loaded album!) or the very best Bret Michaels' STDs.
Cute video here.
Beach House: Zebra. Black + white + horses = zebras. Mathematics!
Beach House is good background music while working, unless you are working on making music, then things just get confusing.
I imagine Beach House is perfect for chillaxin' with 1-5 babes by the pool. If that 6th babe comes along, you better get yourself some party music though!
