New Music Tuesday – Holiday Edition

13 Dec

Well this is more of an uneventful New Music Tuesday (The soundtrack to We Bought A Zoo by Jonsi and Keller Williams’ Bass are the two standouts) but if you are looking for something to relatively new to swoop up for the holidays and stocking stuffers, here are some recent albums you may want to consider:

Since it’s the holidays, Michael Buble – Christmas which came out earlier this fall, is of course #1 on the Billboard 200

The Roots last week released undun

The Black Keys dropped the smashing El Camino

Amy Winehouse disc Lioness: Hidden Treasures

Also The Rolling Stones reissue of Some Girls and Adele Live at Royal Albert Hall are two winners

And next week, Common releases the highly anticipated The Dreamer, The Believer

Mile High Music Festival

Mile High Music Festival is finally here! Ok well a five long days away but man am I stoked about two days of amazing music.  After booking tickets months ago the flight to Denver is oh so close and I can’t wait.  On Saturday, August 14 and Sunday, August 15 The Fields at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park will be home to over 40 music performances and definitely over a handful of acts I can’t wait to hear. 

The toughest part over the two days will be agonizing over which performances are a must see and which I’ll sadly have to take a pass on.  I do know that Saturday will get started with Donavon Frankenreiter’s performance and I’m definitely in to see ALO, Nas & Damian “Jr Gong” Marley, Slightly Stoopid and Jack Johnson.  The rest of Saturday is a toss-up.  As for Sunday, Drive-By Truckers and Ozomatli are shoe-ins for the early side with Jimmy Cliff, Z-Trip, Weezer, My Morning Jacket following and Dave Matthews Band wrapping up the festival.

So much good music in one place over two days and add in what a city Denver is and you can’t ask for much more.  DoyouHearTheMusic.com will mostly be devoted to my preview of Mile High Music Festival artists the rest of the week aka a way for me to talk about some of my favorites.  If you’re reading this my hope is that you find some new music to listen to along the way and if you want to throw in your two cents, please do!

Peace + Love + Music
