newgazzi 12.6.13

It's Friday, and that means it's time for newgazzi ... these five tracks are the first of 15 that will be featured on newgazzi Vol 11, which will be unveiled on Friday, December 27th ...

I met Gordon Robertson and his band, The Damn Choir back in August.  It turns out he's a big fan of the Cleveland Browns, and we both loved Bernie Kosar growing up.  But that's not why they are being featured today.  Their music is really good.  They just finished recording their new record,
Creatures of Habit, and this is a song from that record ... it's called "Creatures".

When I heard that Josh Hutcherson and Haim were going to be featured on SNL a few weeks ago, I had two questions.  Who? and Who?  I learned that Hutcherson was in Kicking and Screaming, which I love, and I started to do some reading about Haim.  When I saw them play, I became an instant fan.  I'll be picking up their record, Days Are Gone, very soon ... here is their performance of "The Wire" from SNL ...
