Still here, we promise.

Torrey and I would like to apologize for our recent cyberspace absence. Among other various paltry excuses, we have spent the past four days immersed in the sweltering heat of our local folk festival. We'd like you to consider this as important research for this blog, much like attending a seminar or participating in a workshop, seeing as how we fell in love (quite literally; folk festivals are whirlwind affairs) with several artists, bought too many CDs, and are sore from the ever-essential head nod of music enthusiasts.

But Torrey does assure me that he has a killer mix on the way. In addition, he broached the idea of also featuring "Artist Specials" on the blog from time to time, namely write-ups of artists we are enjoying and think you may not have heard of. As this suggestion allows us yet more opportunity to tell you what you should be listening to, I think it is awesome. So watch for that.
