Song for Sunday - 26 Apr - Cocoon

A song to hum along to for this Sunday morning. K. Anderson and his song Cocoon make for a toe-tapping delight of a track. Enjoy.

Bonus Song - Carpe Jugular

It's lovely and sunny and warm outside, so let's bring the tone back down shall we. This could never be a Song for Sunday, the style is wrong and the video that goes with it is most certainly not calming Sunday stuff.

The Hidden Cameras are queer-indie at its best. Often described as 'gay church folk music' and occasionally described as 'the gay Arctic Monkeys' you can guess the kind of thing you're going to get.

While I do like this particular track the video always unsettles me. Warning: there is a fair amount of violence in it, so look away if that's not your thing. Even though I know that it's choreographed and delivered by dancers I still find the visuals to be strong. Even though - of course, for me - it has a happy ending. But still ... enjoy.

Sonf for Sunday - 19th Apr - American Motel

Everyone likes a good story. It's even better when that story goes with some great music. Ezra Axelrod gives good story, he gives it with a clear voice and a nice line in lyric.
If you ever need an album for the early days of summer, where the sun is on your face but you still need that extra bit of warmth then Ezra's album is the perfect companion for you. It's a warm, human, piece of work that'll have you singing along.

If you have the time then click through to hear some of Ezra's other songs from the American Motel album, you won't regret it.

Song for Sunday - 12th Apr - New York Story

Some Songs for Sunday should just roll over you. They should make you feel as if you're wrapped up in a duvet, they should keep you comfortable until you're ready to face the day. This is one of those.

Bonus Song - First Time

I can't include this in Song for Sunday because I don't know whether any members of the band Kadie Elder are out LGBT folk or not. But they are Danish, so that's practically close enough (seriously there is a Danish Gay Music Chart, look - You Tube Danish Gay Music Chart )

But this song, well it's very light and airy and kinda springy/summery. So it had to be featured.

Song for Sunday - 5th Apr - Missing Tonight

This is the voice that could whisper sweet nothings into my ear in the middle of the night ... and not get elbowed in the face for waking me up.
A smooth jazzy type of song for a Sunday morning by Spencer Day.
