the harder the life, the sweeter the song

500 Days of Summer, early '60's mod, She&Him, Zooey Deschanel, or Joseph Gordon-Levitt fan? I happen to like all, as well as dancing and the color blue, so this cute video makes my heart smile. voilà! enjoy the class and talent if you will.



and a couple true blue tunes of the folk, guitar picking, rambling musician Ryan Bingham that complete those moments when i'm swinging in a hammock on a hot day and in need of some american harmonica and motivation to saddle em up. btw i'm sold on this bob dylan-ish texan bullrider. his rustic voice can be caught in the soundtrack to Jeff Bridges' (one of this girl's fave actors out there) 2010 alcoholic once-legendary country musician character in Crazy Heart.








and on that note of folksy texan artists, here's another lonestar i heard about. if you like dylan, neil young, tom waits, 
or john prine, you'll like the bluegrass feel to Danny Schmidt's music. as Sing Out! Magazine says, "his songs are a flood of poetry, mythology, folk wisdom, and surprise."
