Shameless Plug

My current music obsession: Blake and Kate.

Blake Mankin is a good friend of my little brother's from high school, and he and his girlfriend, Kate, are extremely talented. They just released their EP on iTunes, and I think everyone needs to hear it. Their lyrics are deeper than you'd expect from college students, and I love their folk/acoustic sound. The EP was number 1 in the iTunes folk section for a few weeks, so others obviously think they are awesome as well! Oh, bonus - cover art was done by little brother's very bff, Jonathan.

You should check them out at http://www.myspace.com/blakeandkate. Particular faves: Answer, and Fashion Compassion.
