Josh Woodward, one of our favorite indie artists on Radio, has just released a new compilation of songs that were too oddball, funny and, well, happy, to make it onto his main releases. I love these! Think Jonathan Coulton mixed with Jack Johnson.
"Fast Food Fantasy" contains the awesome crush-on-a-girl-at McDonalds lines "you're like the sweetest tea/you fill my heart with glee/come on and rescue me". "She's on my mind" invents a new genre: the creepy stalker acoustic ballad. "Brown boxes" is an upbeat tune about moving. "Up Kilkenny" may be my favorite ride of the week--he really brings the Irish guitars on this one.
