I was commenting the other day in response to something I read online in regard to vinyl and its impracticality, that despite its preciousness and lack of portability, any artist or band worth their salt has a unique affinity for the medium. And if they don’t—I don’t get them.
I get Amy LaVere.
“I’ve never really felt like I had a real “record” until releasing Stranger Me on vinyl. For all my other releases, I begged the label for vinyl, but it just never made sense. I grew up with vinyl first—got my first record player as a kid—and have always loved how big and tangible it is…it just gives the music something a little bit extra and special.”
We’ve got an opportunity for you to get to see Amy when she plays Jammin Java on Tuesday night (7/26) in your neck of the woods, DC.
Let us know if the comments why you get Amy (or vinyl) and the most insightful of the bunch will win the pair of tickets. We’re choosing our winner on Monday at 3PM—so get busy!
