Songs for Wednesday // The Spring Standards, Hoots & Hellmouth and more

Words // Adam Sharp
'Only Skin'- The Spring Standards
Equal parts gorgeous and haunting, this is a perfect song for springtime. 
 
 
 
'My Journey to the Sky (Sister Rosetta Tharpe cover)'- The Tallest Man on Earth
Who knew a small Swedish man could sing the hell out of a gospel song?

 

 
'Lay Low'- Hoots & Hellmouth
So much stomping, clapping and ramshackle goodness. One of the most criminally overlooked albums so far this year.


 
'All Of Your Demons'- Jay William Henderson
A little smoky, heartbreaking gem that brilliantly uses handclaps to mask the heaviness that's being sung about.
 
 
 
'Better Idea (Live at Ripcord Studio'- Kelli Schaefer
Stunning, bare bones intensity and honesty from one of the Pacific Northwest's best young songwriters.
