We were hooked after Several Arrows Later and following every step afterwards, we've arrived at yet another gem created by Matt Pond PA. Here in PA (Pennsylvania), things are getting messy and turning out quite like that picture above. Some sun has been around, and some snow showed up for a day or so, but we're quite happy with our temporate weather up here in the Northeast overall.
You can download the album for FREE right here.
If you live anywhere more north and are getting snowed on like crazy, perhaps this EP, FREE ep that is, will brighten your spirits.
MP3: Matt Pond PA - First Light (buy)
Arbor Day (4/25) isn't something we normally celebrate, but it makes for a great playlist opportunity that we couldn't pass up. Since we missed out on Earth Day (4/22), we threw in an Earth theme as well. First place for the best tree song goes to Rush. You rock.
So grab some seeds, maybe a beer and some mulch and enjoy our list. Happy Arbor Day.

Trees rock!

This was such an easy pick. Leaves In The River is pretty much a metaphor for Arbor Day.
