Playlist 327 - Oct 7 2014

The great new Caribou album loomed large over this week's show - from it we played the gorgeous 'All I ever need'. I find I'm pairing it with the new Wildbirds & Peacedrums material, they have a second thrilling single of drumbeat soul (let's call it) from their upcoming new album.

I've been reading the 4AD biography of late so I thought it'd be nice to pull out some Tarnation from 1997, an old No Disco staple in the Donal Dineen days. You could file that sound next to Calexico, so as luck would have it we also had the writer Sylvie Simmons with her debut album produced by that other Tucson legend Howe Gelb.

Sean Nicholas Savage plays in Ireland this week, Paul Smith & Peter Brewis with beautiful, lyrical chamber pop.

A Lazarus Soul and Women's Christmas, two fine Irish bands with new albums out around now.

Jennifer Castle and A Winged Victory For The Sullen, you'll find more on the blog on those; Circus Devils and GBV, connected by Robert Pollard.

And the brilliantly lugubrious voice of Dan Michaelson, like Lambchop in a lower register. Enjoy.
