.On a spring time music rampage.

Hey!
Have you heard the new Broken Bells album? It's a collaboration from Danger Mouse and the Shin's James Mercer.
That Broken Bells.

Broken Bells - The High Road from Phunk Promotion on Vimeo.

My good friend sent me a review on them last night and an announcement that they'll be playing a Toronto show with The Morning Benders (who are also wicked, you should check them out too). I had heard the hype on BB but not the album, so this morning, thanks to my awesome musical nerd friend and some streaming, I listened to the whole album.

You need to listen to this.
Stop everything and listen to this album.
There are moments in there that remind me of the Beatles.
There are moments in there I can picture myself sitting beside a pool with a beer in my hand.
There are pure moments of summer excellence in those songs.
