This is a semi-regular interactive post where I share what I'm listening to at the moment of writing and you share what you are listening to. It can be old favourites rediscovered or new bands that nobody but you as ever heard of, there are no rules other than one - share your love of music.
Thirteen Senses is in my opinion an underrated band, some bands get more radio airplay than they should and others as a consequence don't get as much as they deserve. When was the last time you heard the track Do No Wrong played on the radio?
Bongo Maffin. If you haven't heard of this band do a search now. It's a South African band and there music takes me back to 1989/1990 when Soul II Soul were huge in the UK. For some unknown reason the song Amadlozi reminds me of Soul II Soul's Back To Life.
I'll be honest I don't know much about India Aire, I came across some of her music by accidental discovery but I like the way she keeps it simple. There's nothing flashy about Can I Walk With You and yet I could listen to it more than I probably should.
With all the rain we are getting this summer and no money to go travelling I have had to resort to music to give me the feel of summer and with that I've found myself playing Johannes Linstead and his Spanish guitar. Mango
Lacuna Coil, sounds like it should be the name of a gorgeous sexy B-movie Italian actress, but enough about my perversions, its not, there are instead a band that make some beautiful music, Cold being an example.
I've been told that Tiny Dancers are a great band to see live, I cannot confirm or deny haven't not seen them myself yet but I do recommend I will Wait For You
I've heard rumours that Sons & Daughters have a new album coming out this year. About time too. Its as good an excuse as any to play Monsters once again.
Grandaddy's Nature Anthem has been played way too much this week, and for no reason really. Do I need a reason? OK, OK I'm a hippy and I'm missing summer since it disappeared in April, shut up.
With me being so close to being homeless this week it was time to pull out Willy Mason's Hard Hand To Hold This boy has got a talent with words that should see him have a long career.
Anyway I'm moving in two days, so if you comment it might be a week or two before I can respond in some way. My apologies in advance.

Good luck in you move. I hope the weather cooperates for living in the box ;)
Will check out some of the music.
Nice. Comments are going into the spam folder, I wonder how long that's been going on and I haven't noticed...
Hope the move isn't too traumatic.
That's where my lost comments went as well. I wonder what tweak they did that screwed that up!
I love this section of your blog.I get little time to discover new stuff,so you're now my music pimp.Totally agree with the willy mason comment,he's one that I do have on my mp3 and his lyrics are amazing.
By the time I write you are probably moving... hope things are ok.
This morning I have headache... decided to party last night and forgot am too old for that (the funny thing is that I have nothing alcoholic to drink). That's might be the reason.
Take care!
