Merry Christmas followers, and here’s to the music of this year and much much more to come!

But now, as we draw closer to Christmas, it’s time to shift over to some of my favorite themed songs. Nothing traditional I promise.

Way Down Hadestown
Anais Mitchell feat. Justin Vernon, Ani DiFranco and Ben Knox Miller
Way Down Hadestown // Anaïs Mitchell (ft. Justin Vernon, Ani Difranco, Greg Brown, Ben Knox Miller, & The Haden Triplets)
Hadestown tells the post apocalyptic version of Orpheus and Eurydice. Anaïs Mitchell does an incredible of using the talents she knows for the different voices of the cast so that she plays Eurydice, Justin Vernon plays Orpheus, Ani Difranco is Persephone, Greg Brown is Hades, and The Haden Triplets and the Fates. This is one of the introduction songs for the Folk Opera. It sets up the feel of the album though the songs vary from Greg Brown’s deep vocals to full string sections to Vernon playing banjo.
It’s worth a listen.

Louisiana 1927 (Randy Newman Cover)
Sunday under the covers: Justin Townes Earle - “Louisiana 1927” (Randy Newman)
Justin Townes Earle’s cover of Randy Newman’s “Louisiana 1927” from his latest vinyl 45 release. One to be heard to say the least.
