The Tryout: BIRP!
Usually when people becomes "fans" of something on Facebook, I just ignore it. But a few weeks ago, a coworker became a fan of the Blalock Indie Rock Playlist and, being a lover of making mixtapes, I decided to see what was up with this one. I am very glad that I did.
In what has to be highly illegal, BIRP posts a list of a hundred or so songs every month that you can download for free. Now, like with all indie rocks lists, there's a lot of blah. A lot of songs just float into the background. Many bands seem like they are just ripping off a better indie group. But there are a few gems in there. One of my favorite songs right now is That Is Not My Home by Alec Ounsworth; a song I probably would have never discovered had it not been for BIRP.
So anyway, enough typing by me; just click on the pic below and get taken over to the musical goodness that is BIRP!
