One of the new songs on their latest album, Nothing Rhymes With Woman, is called Pink. As Barry Pri...

So when I was getting ready to write about Carbon Leaf's third album, I struggled at first to find anything to say. After my first couple of listens over the weekend, I found myself somewhat uninterested and with very little to say.Luckily, time broke for me today and I was able to get a more direct look at the band's new disc out on Vanguard.

Carbon Leaf is getting back on the road a bit more, so it's time for one of my usual updates with how they're doing. As I've said before - these guys are one of my all time favorite bands.

I really loved Carbon Leaf's Echo Echo, but I can't even listen to their new album, Love, Loss, Hope, Repeat. I mean, I keep trying and just skip through songs and end up listening to NPR. I picked it up on a whim at Starbucks... I should never do that. It always makes me sad. It's a shame, too, because I'm in the middle of a huge folk kick and I'd thought I get more of the Irish-goodness of E...

As 2008 comes to a close, everyone is starting to think about the upcoming year and what will be coming out. There's never a shortage of artists who we always want to be releasing new materials, and already, I've started looking for what will be coming out in 2009.

Whew! I haven't been here in such a long time. Life just happens, I guess...This post is of a local band where I live. More on the folksy side of music than I normally listen to but they've really grown on me lately. Privett, the lead singer has this ability to cut through to the soul of the words he is singing.
