That Sound #77 - U.S.E., Mary Onettes, Yeasayer, Annie, more!
Hope you enjoyed the Halloween episodes! They were a bit more fun to make than the usual weekly episodes, though also a bit more work. I think I doubled my lifetime whispering by doing the “voices”for those.
Our two-year-old, Sydney, helped me do this one.

I’m totally is love with Sydney’s voice!! She’s sooooooo cute!
Since you’re an confessed Scandinavian music lover, I’m sure you are familiar with the label Series II Records: they have released an awesome collection of Scandinavian (and non-Scandinavian) indie bands worth listening (http://www.indiepages.com/seriestwo/sounds.html).
Thank you so much for the show.

Thanks, Juan, me too!
I’m familiar with Series II, but haven’t checked in with their stuff for a while. Thanks for the reminder!
