Up & Comers: The David Mayfield Parade

From his role as guitarist for Cadillac Sky to his Grammy nominated production/engineering studio work, David Mayfield has been plenty busy in a supporting role.  At the insistence of the Avett brothers, he decided to take center stage with the release of The David Mayfield Parade's self-titled debut.  His sister, Jessica Lea Mayfield, and both Avetts lend their talents to the LP.  It is worth a listen.  Sample the tracks below then do yourself a favor by picking it up HERE.

Sound Opinions Podcast

Sound Opinions is the "World's only rock and roll talkshow."  Jim DeRogatis of the Chicago Sun-Times and Greg Kot of the Chicago Tribune preside over this enjoyable hour long radio show.  These guys know their stuff about all kinds of music.  I don't always agree with them on their "Buy It - Burn It - Trash It" scale of new music, but they are really interesting to listen to.  I definitely think that this is a must listen for the music buffs out there.

This post wasn't very exciting so I'll throw you all a bone with a song and an excellent video.  The track is from the young and talented Jessica Lea Mayfield entitled "For Today."  The video features The Avett Brothers performing an INCREDIBLE live cover of the song.  I know that makes two Avett videos very close together, but this one is just too good to pass up.
