The Idelic Hour returns for 2016 next Friday. —Ed.
Greetings from Laurel Canyon! It was back to school this week in the Canyon. Yep, believe it or not the LA school district has the kids back at it on August 18th. Our guy, Jonah hit 2nd grade and isn’t looking back.
I could never imagine going back to class before Labor Day. The last couple of weeks in August is dreamy back east. I guess, this summer, I’ve been thinking a lot about summer. Fuck, it’s not that I’m lazy…I just get a bit tired.
Indeed this past couple of weeks I’ve had my fair dose of days by the sea, happily “hooked” music, family, and yeah—fishing too. This week my focus was to “rock on.” I’ve putting together a playlist featuring “bits of all that’s been cool these last couple of weeks.” New songs from Beach House, Lana Del Rey, Health, La Luz, Deerhunter, Ultimate Painting, Frank Carter, and my young pals The Garden, mixed with a few “favorite things.”
Pretty much classic “Idelic” fare. Look for me cruising around this weekend’s FYF festival, then I’m off to Nashville for a couple of days.
Hit ya from down there, ya’ll.
The Idelic Hit of the Week:
The Garden – All Smiles Over Here
“Hooked on love,” it’s Idelic.
