October’s video companion kicks off with live performances from Joseph Arthur & the Lonely Astronauts and Matt Mays & El Torpedo, two of our featured artists. Then we settle into a nice groove with live performances from Dar Williams, Sometymes Why, Gretel, Dan Baird, Backyard Tire Fire, Brandi Carlile, Jesse Malin, Paul Weller and the masterful Waylon Jennings. We round things out with a video from Wild Sweet Orange and Joseph Arthur’s cover of the Velvet Underground’s “Pale Blue Eyes.” Whew.
