Dean Wareham

Keeping up with the Deans this afternoon.  Yesterday, Dean Wareham of Galaxie 500, Luna, and Dean & Britta fame announced upcoming new solo outing "That's the Price of Loving Me."  Listen to the wistful, string-laden "You Were the Ones I Had to Betray" below and pre-order the album here from Carpark Records.

Dean & Britta & Sonic Boom

Dean & Britta made a Christmas album with Sonic Boom.  Far out.  Here's a track from it.  Listen to "Pretty Paper" below and get the "A Peace of Us" LP here from Carpark Records.

Daily Jam - Don't Think Twice, It's Alright

Here's a wonderful cover of Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" by Britta Phillips, the A-side of the Dean & Britta 7" also featuring a cover of Paul and Paula's "Hey Paula."  Check out the provocative cover art above and dig on the track below, our Daily Jam.

Dean & Britta - Happy Xmas (War Is Over)

Speaking of Christmas covers raising money for good causes, Dean & Britta give us a wonderful take on John Lennon's and Yoko Ono's "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)."  The funds will be going to The Sled which provides assistance to underprivileged NYC public school students and their families.  Do it.  Listen below and get the music here from Double Feature Records.

Daily Jam - Moonshot

I've been on a little bit of a Galaxie 500 kick lately, most likely the result of the band's live "Copenhagen" album getting the vinyl reissue treatment for the first RSD drop back in August.  And that Galaxie 500 kick led me on to Luna which then led me on to Dean & Britta.  Check out the husband/wife duo's cover of Buffy Sainte Marie's "Moonshot" below, our Daily Jam.

Dean & Britta

Quarantine jams are just going to be a thing from here on out.  Lockdown loops.  Social distance tunes.  Here's a new collection from Dean & Britta called "Quarantine Tapes."  The pair have been making music for a long time, in the band Luna, or Dean with Galaxie 500 and Britta as the singing voice of Jem on the '80s cartoon show.  Great pedigrees all around.  Listen to "Neon Lights" below and get the album here from the duo.
