What Are You Listening To? December 2018

[axolotl]

I commented on how much I liked the track and the band and individual members all "friended" me. I've got some new friends in LA!

Hopefully, the new friends won't replace your old ones. [It's Auld Lang Syne in a week, Bud.]

I think @Ojai Sam should check this out. He has been having good luck expanding his musical horizons here. He might like this too!

It's not Bob Wills, but it might be the next best thing.
