Sit And Listen To The Rain

It’s been a cold, rainy and lazy Sunday here in Chicago. The better part of the day I’ve been sitting here in my room searching for new music in the blogosphere, lurking on last.fm and listening to some pretty mellow and sad bastard tunes. Perfect rainy day listening in my opinion. I thought I would upload my playlist to share with you all. Enjoy!

Make sure you join the last.fm “Slowcoustic” group created by my co-blogger Smansmith. He puts up a monthly playlist for download over on slowcoustic.com for members of the group. Smansmith has some damn fine taste in music (just sayin!) so really it is in your best interest to join this group. Trust me on this one.

  • Woot! Nice playlist Laura – some serious tracks there.

    Thanks for the plug as well – Last.fm is seriously the best music site in the last decade, it has done soo much for molding my musical taste, created friends and got me into music blogging! Anyone reading who isn’t on Last.fm (like that is possible) – get there now!
