Great Spongetones contest going on here! just guess where waldo is in this great video of Jamie Hoover and Steve Stoeckel....
Comment by Bruce Brodeen on February 25, 2013 at 9:05am It's NEVER too late to talk about Kelly Stoltz, pplist....another one in a long list of over-looked power pop greats, though, that's not a proper application of the term. I pull his albums out a few times a year without fail....
Comment by Thomas Cruz on February 24, 2013 at 2:43pm Thanks for this-I had stopped with Circuloir Sounds, sounds like I should pick this up too.

I can only speak so far for the album The Ancient Art of Leaving: Two Parts so far, but it so great that I'm kinda bummed they were able to escape my notice this long ;<)
Comment by Rashid Stephen Pettit on January 20, 2013 at 12:51am one of the best new power pop guys I have heard in recent years - Mr. Kurt Baker! He has three albums and a bunch of videos on youtube. He reminds me of a cross between early Elvis Costello and early Joe Jackson (does that mean he sounds like The Jags? ha ha. maybe.) You can stream his new album and, more imprtantly, BUY it here: http://kurtbaker.bandcamp.com/album/brand-new-beat
One of my favorite albums of 2012. Give it a listen, won't ya?
