Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “The Nights Of Wine And Roses” by Japandroids
Looking back at the 2012 Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago, it was full of outstanding new music mostly performed by artists I had never heard of.

Canadian born Claire Boucher made a splash on […]

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Waters Part” by Let’s Active
They were one of the finest purveyors of Power Pop during the 1980s, helmed by one of the era’s most in-demand producers. Let’s Active formed in 1980 in Winston-Salem North Carolina and consisted of Mitch Easter on guitar and vocals, Faye Hunter on bass and Sara Romweber on drums. Mitch Easter’s fame as a producer […]
