The House of Husar

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 the band features current and former members of Botch, Kill Sadie, and Sharks Keep Moving. Although the band has release 4 albums Amie Street only has an EP called Acoustics. All 7 tracks of which is worth the price of $2.58 at the time I am writing this. You can visit Minus the Bear on Amie Street at http://amiestreet.com/artist/minus-the-bear/.

Here is also the video for this weeks track.

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 their tracked called My Life in the Bike Scene. I found The Righs by searching the Free music this week. You can get their entire 10 track album titled The Rivers Run Deep on their Amie Street page at http://amiestreet.com/artist/the-righs/.

Sorry but I can’t find anything about the band on the web so if anyone know more let me know. Looks like I was able to find more on these guys. You can also check them out on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/therighs. If you are an Irish music fan at all you should enjoy this album. After all it is free right now on Amie Street!

Here is a video as well…
