My favorite song of the year (so far) now has an excellent new video for all of us to enjoy. Shot by Albert Birney, it features frontman Samuel T. Herring running (obviously) on the road ands trails of Maryland.

As I prep #31days2016, I find myself exploring the tunes from past (31) Days of Good. It seems counter productive when i’m writing about the best new music of the year, but listening to old favorites seems to motivate me more. Last month, Brendan and I revisited the early blogspot days of Concrete Opinions and 35mmBeats on Revolutions Per Minute and had a blast. So, as we approach the “best of season”, i thought it would be nice to share my old (31) Days of Good playlists.
Enjoy.
