Octoberman

It's Wednesday, we're halfway there folks. Hump day!

This morning I'm listening to Octoberman. My three-year-old loves to play music. He is pretty good at even the harmonica. He loves Jens Lekman and all this intricate music. Octoberman reminds me of Jens in a way because of the trumpets and the harmonica. The music is unique and folky which is not so much Jens, but I have a feeling Brae would love Octoberman. I may have to include some of these tracks on the next mix CD I make him.

Who is Octoberman? Marc Morrissette. And his fantastic backing band...Rob Josephson (drums), Graham Christofferson (bass), Leah Abramson (vocals), and CL McLaughlin (guitar, vocals).

On August 21st their album, Run From Safety, will release and I highly recommend it.

Listen:
Octoberman - "Run From Safety" (mp3)
Octoberman - "By the Wayside" (mp3)

Buy their albums!
