Mason Jennings - I Love You and Buddha too

I actually saw the video I am posting on TV the other day and was reminded of senior spring sitting in my friends' back yard with some beers, Mark playing the guitar and Paul going nuts on the harmonica. I used to sit there/jump on the trampoline for hours, while lots of Mason Jennings was played. Its not just the fond memories of a 70 degree springtime and Sessions (I miss it so much) beer in Denver that make me like Mason Jennings so much, but the unique quality he has in his voice and the variety of his songs. He reminds me a bit of freak-folk artist Devendra Banhart with his funky style and eclectic genre-mixing and Langhorne Slim. From his newer album I like Sunlight and Black Wind Blowing. In the Ever and Boneclouds are my favorite albums. Fighter Girl and Jackson Square are my other favorite songs. In this video he is playing with Jack Johnson, Matt Costa, and G Sauce, and a few others. It looks like an unforgettable concert.

Langhorne Slim - Say Yes

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this guy. He is from Pennsylvania and has been touring with people like Cake, The Avett Brothers, Rocky Votolato, Josh Ritter, The Woes, and The Low Anthem. This last summer he made it to Newport folk festival which is a pretty big deal. He reminds me a bit of Josh Ritter and Mason Jennings. The number of songs I could tell you to listen to are endlesss. They are seriously all good. But his more recognized songs would include: In the midnight, Restless, Diamonds and Gold, Cinderella, and Electric Love Letter. And lastly I wanted to give special attention to my other favorite I love you but goodbye. You can listen to more on his myspace page. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
