Yes, it’s been a long time since I posted here. I just haven’t been able to muster the required enthusiasm to write about going out and having fun. The weather so far this year hasn’t helped, but there are signs of… well, hardly a rip-roaring summer, but at least something closer to late spring than we’ve seen this far.
The recent partial thaw has lifted my spirits a tad, and so I thought it was appropriate to post the music video below. It’s George Harrison’s iconic “Here Comes The Sun”, performed by Nicki Bluhm and the Gramblers as a part of their “Band in the Van” series which caught my attention on the “CBS This Morning” show last weekend. This rising folk band is fabulous, of course, and the series of van videos features several classic rock tunes. Nicki Bluhm has a sweet, clear voice with great subtlety to it. Check them out on YouTube and iTunes.
Nicki Bluhm is coming to Minneapolis June 18! See http://www.nickibluhm.com/tour for details!
