Nailed Promise

We've no clue who this band is or just why they want to flood our inbox with mp3's and concert dates and press releases, but we suspect it has something to do with ROCK. Apparently they were on P.O.D.'s indie label Rescue Records at one point and have put out somewhere between 2 and 15 albums, but we can only find two listed on iTunes, Realize and Sink Your Teeth ep.

Local Artist Jeff Grant that has decided to offer up his most recent album for free!  This is third LP entitled Behind the Scenes, which you can also purchase those from the same site, which seems to be a little indie nugget.  You can go and get the entire 16-track album here.

great american desert album cover

 

A staple album on my ipod is The Great American Desert by the Thrift Store Cowboys. After seeing a live show at this year’s SXSW, I knew I had to tell more people about this evocative band. Their sound comes from a diverse mixture of instruments; sometimes it sounds western rockish, sometimes mariachi, sometimes indie folk with a desert twist. It is cohesive and beautiful, with the violin or pedal steel suddenly blowing through like the west Texas wind.
