One of my favorite David Bazan songs is covered by The Tallest Man On Earth for KEXP.
The Decemberists – “Row Jimmy” (Grateful Dead)
The fifth track on The Decemberists 2011 EP, Long Live The King is a beautiful cover of the Grateful Dead’s “Row Jimmy.” You can read about Colin Meloy’s choice in covering the song (inspired by Yo La Tengo) here.

Bill Fay – “Be At Peace With Yourself”
“At the end of the day // ain’t nobody else // gonna walk in your shoes // quite the way that you do // so be at peace with yourself”
Bill Fay’s new album, his first in more than 40 years, arrives August 21st on Dead Oceans. It is so beautiful. (video via Aquarium Drunkard)
