Sarah Jaffe is my new, favorite discovery (found her via Filmspotting podcast). Here's the amazing song "Clementine." Jaffe's album, Suburban Nature, is only $5 through tomorrow. Don't miss it! It's really good.
Let this cover of Gillian Welch's "Everything Is Free" marinate. It's an artist concerned with being able to keep making art (lyrics | she explains). Beautiful rendition by Megafaun and The Tallest Man On Earth (has a $5 album through tomorrow). Original found on Gillian's album, Time (The Revelator).
