MixTape Monday

Here’s a fresh batch of music that has been playing in our house these days.

1. The Staves
British trio of sisters who have released a few EPs.

2. Dave Rawlings & Gillian Welch
Another of Oliver’s favorites. We often hear his tiny voice calling for “Sweet Tooth” from the very back of the van. It’s funny what songs pique kids’ interest.

3. Melody Gardot
A native of our one-time-home city Philadelphia, PA. The glasses and the cane aren’t props — she was hit by a car and spent a year in the hospital recovering, but has lingering neurological and physical issues.
