Julie Byrne & Jefre Cantu-Ledesma - Love's Refrain

A few years back, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma released the beautiful "Love's Refrain," an dreamy instrumental track that was used to profound effect on last year's "Knife + Heart."  It makes its way into rotation pretty regularly around these parts, and now we've got a new lyrical version courtesy of folk artist Julie Byrne.  Byrne leaves the song intact and adds her soothing vocals to create a wonderful new take on the track.  Check it out below and get it here from Looking Glass.

Tim Presley - Must Let Go

LA psych rock artist Tim Presley, oh he of White Fence and Drinks fame, released a new single for the holiday weekend.  "Must Let Go" is quirky and sweet, spaced and tripping, and somehow uplifting in a world that sorely needs something like that.  Check it out below and get it here via Looking Glass.
