Mixtapes - Hope is for People [2011]
Genre: Punk-Pop
The songs on Hope is for People are classic pop punk - fast, frantic, and fun, regardless of the subject matter. One of the many things that punk music is really good at is wrapping up difficult emotions in an unbeatable sense of joy and abject fucking hope, and Mixtapes do both really well. § ruckus

Old Calf - Borrow a Horse [2011]
Genre: Indie Folk
Home / Blog
Old Calf formed as a duo in the small, but musically vibrant town of Charlottesville, VA by Ned Oldham (The Anomoanon, Palace Music) and accordionist Marty Metcalfe, slowly accruing members on route to recording their debut album. Michael Clem (bass, mandola, dead-on harmonies) and Brian Caputo(percussion) round out the group of Southern gentlemen, who tightened up their sound rehearsing in Ned's garage, and performing around town on weekend nights... While Will Oldham has spent two decades cultivating a certain cryptic obscurity as the leader of Palace and under the name Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, his brother and former sideman, Ned Oldham, became obscure the old-fashioned way: by keeping a low profile while crafting steady, understated folk-rock. Ned’s long-running band The Anomoanon has given way to a new outfit called Old Calf, but if its debut album, Borrow A Horse, is any indication, he hasn’t changed his stripes.
