New Music | Rachael Yamagata

I’ve heard the name Rachael Yamagata off and on for about four years, but for some reason have never taken the time to listen. So tonight, with an evening free, I listened to her recent live concert on All Songs Considered. I highly recommend it and I highly recommend checking out her new album due to release soon.

A Quick Conversation From the Suburbs

Person – “$188 for a shoe made in China?! I would never pay that for something made in China.”

Me – “Would you pay around $100 for something made in China?”

Person – “Well, sure.”

Me – (silence)

Things to Come

The last month has been a whirlwind of emotional and physical endurance. I have failed at times. It has also been a time of being stretched to think more deeply about certain things. My patience on many subjects is being tested. At first I was frustrated, now I’m embracing the time. In the near future I will be writing little quibs about The Suburbs, The Poor, Competition, The Candidates and, of course, New Music.
