WONGIE SONG OF THE MONTH: matt bishop / hey marseilles - rio (acoustic tour video)
matt bishop / hey marseilles - rio (acoustic tour video version)
[we talked about hey marseilles back in august as a wonderfully lush band with songs that are full of flourish and energy. it was the kind of description that felt final, but fast forward to xmas night where i've found myself in a bit of post holiday food coma, and like a dream, i came across this mellow version performed by lead singer matt bishop in the vastness of a church. the end result is both gorgeously haunting and perfect for the sentimental xmas haze i am floating in. if you're also in this state, turn the lights down, press play and just bask. happy xmas yo!]

NPR SONG OF THE DAY: hey marseilles - rio
hey marseilles - rio
[though the band claim to be a folk act, this seattle based collective is definitely more than that. just listen to this wonderful tune (made npr's song of the day) as they add layers upon layers of instrumentation and catchy percussions. it's a music festival wrapped up in a song, if you ask me!]
