Piece Description
This week on The Needle Drop, public radio's most dangerous show about independent music, we take a listen to new music from Canadian singer-songstress Basia Bulat. Her latest LP Heart of My Own is a collection of truly immediate and intimate folk pop tunes. She's a passionate autoharpist with a load of guts.
We've also got electrorock from Civil Civic, and a look at vintage folk rock with Midlake's new LP, The Courage of Others.
