First up, everyone's favorite Seattle-based singer/songwriter
Laura Veirs did her
best song to date, "Galaxies," from her new album
Year of Meteors (
iTunes,
Amazon,
Other Music). Then we heard
Ladytron with "Destroy Everything You Touch" from their brand new album called
Witching Hour (
iTunes,
Amazon,
Other Music). Next was two songs by the classic
Seattle-based indie pop/rock band
Tullycraft (who have somehow never made it on
The Sounds in My Head before). First was "Stowaway" from their new album
Disenchanted Hearts Unite (
iTunes,
Amazon,
Other Music) then, because that song short, we heard "Cowgirls on Parade" from 2002's Beat, Surf, Fun (
iTunes,
Amazon,
Other Music). And finally, a new song from Dallas'
The Polyphonic Spree called "Move Away and Shine (In a Dream Version)" from the soundtrack to the new movie
Thumbsucker (
iTunes,
Amazon,
Other Music).
