Ünnecessary Ümlaut

Here’s an old acoustic number Frank Black did with Glen Hansard of The Frames. And a new one off his latest LP, NonStopErotik. There’s still tix for tonight’s show in Petaluma. C’mon up!

What the Ümlaut’s got on repeat this week:

Richard Buckner‘s acoustic take on Town that practically broke my heart. The new Frank Black, er, Black Francis searing, road-worthy tune I’d love to crank somewhere between SF and LA. And back. Will Oldham, er, Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy gone house-tastic on Hot Chip‘s I Feel Better. Plus, the damn Star Wars / Jay-Z parody I cannot get out of my head. So now I’ll get it stuck in yours. Enjoy.
