Mayer’s Playlist for November 2015, Part 2

Tuesday, November 24, 2015 By Mayer Danzig

Life’s a Bell, Langhorne Slim (from the Dualtone Records release The Spirit Moves) The pride (at least I think) of Langhorne, PA is back with his best album yet.

Mayer’s Playlist for March/April, Part 1

Wednesday, May 14, 2008 By Mayer Danzig

ALBUMS OF THE MONTH: Traveling and Unraveling, by Steve Poltz Poltz proves himself to be a genuine musical instigator across two concurrent releases, blending a comedic wit and biting lyrics with instantly hummable acoustic melodies. Who else would react to life’s frustrations by asking the semi-serious question “What would Ghandi do in this situation, go […]
