"“I’m not familiar with the musician/novelist, but as far as memoirs, it’s hard to beat Keith Richards’s love of music that shines through in Life."

I love James Acaster as both a comedian and a musician and I swear, this is probably the most absurd yet funny podcast ever, if you're a fan of odd-ball dry English humour then this is definitely for you.

I've been sleeping on this movie like a struggling musician on a friend's couch. Inside Llewyn Davis is a fantastic snapshot from the Coen brothers of a folk singer in the 60's trying to make it in New York. Wonderful soundtrack and film.
  
Phantom Brickworks by Bibio
Phantom Brickworks by Bibio
2017 | Electronic, Pop, Rock
The restless UK electronic musician sets aside prior experiments in spliced soul and finger-picking folk-glitch in favor of foggy ambient atmospheres that are both soothing and haunting.
Critic- Andy Beta
Original Score: 8.2 out of 10

"Obviously I read this when I was very young, with Heaven and Hell, and then years later, a friend of mine in Paris—a rare book dealer and musician—turned me on to all his other books, and I was just knocked flat. They are so good."
