Amie Street Music Wednesday #29 – Minus the Bear
Amie St. Music Wednesday I need something semi-chill today after going to the Old 97′s show last night. After a little searching on Amie Street last night I picked a nice tune from Minus the Bear. The track I chose for this week is Knights. This track sounds a bit like Guster to me. But give it a listen and judge for yourself. The band is currently on tour. The dates are posted on their website at http://www.minusthebear.com/. Unfortunately not much else is on their website. But I was able to find a little more detail on Wikipedia. Minus the Bear is from Seattle, Washington and...

Amie St. Music Wednesday I had a hard time picking a song for this weeks ASMW. But the long search paid off with Am I Just One by Carey Ott. Carey hails from Canada and he reminded me of when I was into the band Travis. Kind of took me back I guess. That made me want to listen to more from Carey Ott on Amie Street. The album sounds pretty good and I like the opening track that I am featuring here the best. I ran across the YouTube video below that gives a great background break down of Carey right from the man himself. You can check Carey Ott at the standard places on the web. Amie...

Amie St. Music Wednesday Well I am almost two weeks into my 30 quarantine of no beer. Been hitting the gym pretty hard to see if I am lose a few pounds. But my scale is not working so I can’t tell if I am making any progress. But back to this weeks ASMW. I almost missed it today and I am posting this very late at about 11:30 PM. So technically I am not late! Since I can’t have a Guinness or Fat Tire I figured it was time to select a good drinking song. For me there is nothing better than a good Irish jam to make me want a beer even more. So I give you The Righs and...

Amie St. Music Wednesday I have discovered Jennifer O’Connor over the past week so I thought I would select her as my ASMW track this week. It is pretty rare that I find a female artist that I really like. Enough so that I can listen to her over and over. To be honest there are no female Elliot Smiths, Will Johnsons or Connor Obersts out there that I have found. But I have to say that Jennifer O’Cnnor can be classified in that elite group of singer songwriters. Jennifer O’Connor is another in a long line of good artist on Matador Records. She just released her...

Amie St. Music Wednesday You did not think I forget about ASMW did you? Come on it is only 9:30 PM and the day is still young. Plenty of time for me to give you this weeks pick so sit back and relax already! I am just grooving on the jam for this week. The track is called The Yellow Brick Road by Raine Maida. Raine is a singer song writer from Canada. What you probably don’t know is that Raine Maida is the vocalist and a founding member of the Canadian rock band Our Lady Peace. I am sure most of you have hear of Our Lady Peace before. Well I am not familiar with Raine’s...
