Music finds

Discovering a new music talent—that I relate to—is a joy, especially artist that perform what I dub “authentic” music…the type of artist that can pull out a guitar and sing a song you get lost in. WUMB Boston Folk Music Radio has given me such treasures as Jeffrey Foucault and Jeff Black. I just love internet radio.

Today’s discovery, Anders Osborne, was born in Sweden, raised on the Island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea, and now resides in New Orleans. What a treasure for New Orleans! What I thought was a new Van Morrison song was actually Osborne’s song Coming Down, I immediately researched this new find and bookmarked his site.

Go to their individual websites and a sample some “authentically,” pure, unadulterated music.
