music, music all around - martin sexton show and upcoming releases

Tressa and I saw John Martyn Martin Sexton play in Saskatoon on February 3rd. It was a good show. I only knew the songs Glory Bound and parts of Black Sheep beforehand, but was impressed. Sexton was much bluesier that I had previously thought and a very solid guitarist. He also has a really good voice...like...you don't even know how good, Vince. You don't even know ; )

It was a fun outing and we discovered that Tressa needs a wagon for her purse. So I welded her one ; )

Looking at the list of upcoming albums, three have piqued my interest in the next month.
February 15th:

  • PJ Harvey - Let England Shake
    has had rave reviews. Interested in what this will sound like
  • Bright Eyes - The People's Key
    latest from the Nebraska band of Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and Nate Walcott

March 3rd:

  • Fleet Foxes - Helplessness blues
    Long await sequel to there great first album. Really looking forward to this one!
