The Ruby Suns


. . . are my favorite today. If you like Animal Collective, Grizzly Bear or Fleet Foxes, take a listen. If not, take a hike. ;) Sea Lion is an album for summer and sunshine. Ukuleles, auto harps, African beats, curious mixes of ambient sound . . . whimsical, fantastical, beautiful. I included 6 of the album's 10 tracks . . . the others are just as good, though. :)

cool stuff, suz - kind of sounds like Flaming Lips - I really like the ambience to it - its a mix between syth stuff, sound effects and great vocals - very cool - thanks for the recommendation. All of it sounds good, but I particularly like the second track, "Remember" - Very cool. Where are you picking up all this music lately?

Glad you like it. I find stuff here and there - recommendations, other blogs, and "Genius" on iTunes are my main sources. Sigh. I miss the record store days.

Did Peter and Lacy ever get you interested in Fleet Foxes? I think you'd dig 'em.

Maybe...hey, if you want to see that pearl story, tell me asap, cause I go onto the trail tomarrow. I took it off the blog, cause I didn't want it to be misunderstood. Anyways, let me know.

I've got it on email. I'm curious to hear what it's about, but it can wait until you're off the trail.
