On this Sunday in June let us wish all the fathers in the world a very happy Father's Day! And for the men who fill the role of dad to those children who need you, a great big happy Father's Day to you as well!

Father's Day is the day to honor fathers and celebrate fatherhood. It was during a 1909 sermon about Mother's Day when Sonora Smart Dodd became inspired to create Father's Day....

Anywho, how about we get some music up for the pops!

Listen:

James Brown - "Papas Got A Brand New Bag" (mp3)
Garth Brooks - "Papa Loved Mama" (mp3)
My Morning Jacket - "Lead Me Father" (mp3)
George Michael - "Father Figure" (mp3)
Peter Gabriel - "Father, Son" (mp3)

Random music news. My Morning Jacket will be releasing a new album on June 10th. I don't know the title yet, anybody out there have the scoop? Let me know. =o)

What is going on with The National right now? I haven't been hearing much and that makes me sad. I love the band and am hoping for some new music. Matt Berninger said in an interview that there's nothing easy about being a member of the National.
"Our relationship as a group is, well, it's not a harmonious thing," he offers contemplatively, chatting from his Brooklyn home on the eve of their upcoming Australian tour.
I think it is fantastic that he was so open about that because we all know it is a truth amongst ALL bands. Hopefully they have been writing while touring and we'll be hearing something new soon.

We have less than a month now to wait for the new Mountain Goats record Heretic Pride, out February 19.
