A few music-related thoughts as we self isolate, elbow bump and search desperately for bathroom tissue during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Eddies have an impressive track record, and “Hey Baby” keys in as another fine addition to their catalog.

Horse Lords make instrumentals that are largely unlike anything you’ve heard before but through clever and deliberate planning, make wildly disparate songs that draw you in all the same.

#Bloomerangs has achieved something which is not easy on ‘Moments and Fragments,’ linking many different influences and musical references.
