Running From Home
We/Or/Me

We/Or/me’s cover of a Bert Jansch song, Running From Home. Think it fits as we just finished our second day of a move. We’re staying in town but it’s a deep move - not so much physically as emotionally as we feel like we’re moving to a place that feels more like home than any place we’ve ever lived. “Catchin dreams on a star” I guess you could say.

Andrew's Album Mentioned in WBEZ Article!

alaskatapes:

Our very own Andrew and his most recent EP, Songs from Bubbly Creek, were just mentioned in an article about the Chicago River and cultural resources for positive change on the WBEZ website. Speaking of efforts to re-reverse the river and its troubled history it mentions, “…the notorious Bubbly Creek (speaking of cultural resources check out local Andrew Malo’s ode to the notorious stew, the 2012 EP Songs from Bubbly Creek).”

Click on the link above to hear the songs on bandcamp, read about the thinking that went into the album, and purchase the album!

Music I remember hearing in the air as a kid...

Just put together all these songs I remember hearing as a kid, from the Bee Gees (the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack was strangely big in our house) to Creedence Clearwater Revival to Chicago (can’t include the Beatles since it’s on Spotify). It was a trip listening to these songs end to end. What songs were in the air for you as a child?

Not sure if Bahhaj meant it this way but this song really seems to fit the Fast the more I think about it.

Where I’ll be tonight!* Great music and great coffee. Done.

*Unless you’re a stalker, then I’ll be somewhere else entirely.

Don’t miss the We/Or/Me concert at Heritage Bicycles General Store tonight! Unless you have a shark rodeo planned (and if you do get us the address ‘cause we’re totally there after the concert) this is the best way to spend your night tonight.

When: Thursday, February 23, 7-9pm

Where: Heritage Bicycles General Store, 2959 Lincoln Ave. Chicago, IL
