#SLS — “Vänner och Fränder” (translated to Friends and Relatives) by Garmarna
Garmarna I went out to Spotify and found a playlist someone made of 100 of the best Scandinavian songs, but after sampling many of them I wasn’t too keen on the musical tastes of the person who put the list together. Then I put a search on Scandinavian musical artists and started scrolling until I…
Friday Favorite Feature 21 — “No Words” (cover) by Popdudes
image from discogs Sorry for another late posting but it’s still Friday here. Will try to do better next week.

MMB 2024 Week 2 — “Yellow” (cover) by Bande à part (with update on 1/10/24)
I decided to take a look at my growing playlist of music gleaned from Spotify’s Release Radar to find a musician or band beginning with the letter A or B. It took me some effort to find some information about them in English, which I never did. I’m guessing they are from France, and they…
