We hosted her last January in a sold out show at the Mercado Negro in Aveiro. Just four months later, she puts out the best album of her career on her Paradise of Bachelors debut. The Weather Station’s Loyalty is out now and you can listen to two songs off it on our weekly playlist. But there are plenty of reasons to listen to this one and to subscribe our ever-changing playlist.

In this week’s playlist we focus on the new Giant Sand album, Heartbreak Pass. Here’s to more 30 years of Howe Gelb writing better songs than you! One of the acts to check on this years’ NOS Primavera Sound in about a month. Be sure to check Twerps as well – we’ll let you know when the festival’s timetable is available! I wish I could say My Morning Jacket would be there too… Their new record is amazing. What a time to be alive.
