Sunday Music Muse Day - Harvie S./Sheryl Bailey - Mark Helias, Gerry Hemings=way, Ray Anderson

This Sunday Music Muse Day, falls on the first day of Daylight Saving Time, and the last weekend before Election day, and the combination has a lot of people's heads spinning.  The uncertainties of the election are so thick you could cut it with a knife.  So, with that in mind, I'm offering these two indie releases that offer a light music tone.  First is Harvie S/ Sheryl Bailey Plucky Strum, nice acoustic guitar and bass duo set.  The playful comic graphic almost comes as fitting a novelty music album, but there is some nice intimate interplay. 





Next up is BassDrumBone The line Up. The band's name refers to bassist Mark Helias, drummer, and Gerry Hemingway, and trombonist Ray Anderson,  An online profile on the All That Jazz website, says: "BassDrumBone is a trio that has wedded the uniquness of it's instrumentation with the singular personality of it's three members. A true collective, their music combines three distinct compositional and improvisational approaches with an exceptional musical rapport." I'll let you be the judge, but I think it's worth a listen.




Well, here's hoping for a safe and high turn out election we can all take proud in.
