Lera Lynn

I'm thoroughly immersed in Lera Lynn's debut record 'Have You Met Lera Lynn'. If I was the type to write record reviews I would write and extremely glowing one.

As I was searching for more Lera Lynn stuff on Soundcloud I came across the below. I have some background in dance/house music. This is a great ambient electronic pop piece that Lera lend her vocals to.

William Rivers Pitt | The Wrath of Fools: An Open Letter to the Far Right:

"You who worship Jesus at the top of your lungs (in defiance of Christ's own teachings on the matter of worship, by the way) helped put several churchgoers into their graves and into the hospital. You who shriek about the sanctity of marriage helped cut down a man who was about to be married. You who crow with ceaseless abandon about military service and the nobility of our fighting forces helped to critically wound the wife of a Naval aviator who fought for you in a war. You who hold September 11 as your sword and shield helped put a little girl born on that day into the ground.

You helped. Yes, damn you, you helped."

DBT Week in Review - 1/7/11

Drive-By Truckers @ Brooklyn Bowl�|�TheMST.com | The Music Street Team:

"Given the desolate location, terrible sight lines, and cavernous Thunder Dome-esque space of Terminal 5, it would have been worth it to buy tickets to the New Year’s Eve show just to get tickets to the Brooklyn Bowl show, and skip the Terminal 5 show entirely. Unless you really love the Drive-By Truckers. And given the crowd reaction at Brooklyn Bowl, it didn’t seem like many of the fans planned on skipping a Drive-By Truckers show. Ever."

Top 10 Albums Of 2010, by Paul Shirley:

"I could make the case (once again, to myself, because, once again, no one else would care to hear the argument) that the Drive-By Truckers managed to write my favorite AND second-favorite songs of the year, with “Birthday Boy” and “This F*cking Job”.

But I could be talked down from that position; those two songs might only be my third-favorite and fifth-favorite of the year. However, there is one thing of which I am positive: the Truckers wrote my favorite stanza of the year. From “Birthday Boy”, which is written from the perspective of a world-weary stripper:

“Got a girlfriend, don’t you, boy,

Nervous hands can’t lie,

Married men don’t ask how much,

Single ones ain’t buying.”

Even now, after something like 1,795 listens this year, the song gives me the chills; the Drive-By Truckers’ ability to cut to the heart of the human condition is one of the great musical revelations of the 21st century.

Drive By Truckers: Incisive."
