Got a grip o’ goods to add to your shopping list … Sugary pop genius from Superchunk that’ll hit shelves July. Deceptively powerful pipes of Samantha Crain. Jenny Lewis‘ his & her project Jenny and Johnny. Jangly, end-of-night rawk from Unbunny. And a sweet, head-noddin’ electro strive from Brock Enright‘s latest (thanks, Jessi!). Enjoy the weekend, folks.
