After all of those lonely solo shows, the great Ryan (and his silky baritone voice) is finally back in action. This weeks playlist was pruned and handpicked by the man himself, so you know it’s good. Don’t forget to come out to the Granada Theater on the 10th for Jay Reatard, Fergus & Geronimo, and Surfer Blood.

Still going strong two weeks into our programming on, the great, Indie-Verse radio and we’ve got another nice lineup of tunes. We’ve got the local scene covered with some tracks from Fergus & Geronimo and The Uptown Bums. Also, my new collective friends from Oxford, MS, Cats Purring, have their fair share of play time. Listen to the show today at 1 PM CST and again on Saturday at the same time. We’ll be in Denton (at Rubber Gloves) tonight for our show with Crystal Antlers, Video and Uptown Bums. Come say hi. Head here for the link to stream. Hit the jump for the tracklisting.

Coincidentally I did not seek out finding Naomi Punk, but happened to be talking to the artist (guess who) who released this record (somewhat secretively) and he passed it along; frankly it quite nearly floored me. Beyond the sweet story of the artist’s Mother recording her Rwandan school children singing along to one of the songs, the music stands for itself. The fresh-baked melodies and jarring jangles are enough to induce a peyote trip. This is the kind of music that makes you stoked to be alive and I have no doubt you will be hearing much more from Naomi Punk in the near future. This is the kind of music that is so impressive upon first hearing it, that you feel the artist could steal your girlfriend solely based on the contents of his songs. The abundance of talent here is overflowing so if you wish to contribute to the future of first-rate music, please purchase a hard copy here.
