Halloween...

It's right around the corner and dressing up is always cause for celebration, even if it happens to be as a monster rather than in a gown.

But why, you might ask, am I bringing this up in a music blog? Well, I was turned on to a new side project of Jackie Greene 's called Skinny Singers. It features the California singer-songwriter teaming up with Tim Bluhm of The Mother Hips. The collaboration is soulful and bluesy AND has incredible cover art!


I think Superhero costumes are a great idea for Halloween or any time! Hope it gets you in the mood and thinking about what to dress up as for the holiday.

And, while you're thinking, what's YOUR favorite Halloween inspired album cover?
