this week's selection, I think they could be right. Music from
Canada, Texas, London, Germany, New York and Norway.

She Walks On Water - Love =
Action (Texas, USA)
Love = Action is the current solo project of singer/songwriter
Jacoby Jennings. The sound of the music is a collision of organic
and electronic instruments but the constant is the honesty that
flows through every song. Rather reminds me of The Blue Nile.

Lovely note from Mune of Butumbaba (Sin Capitan on last week’s show)
pointing out my inability to read the bleedin’ obvious. Of course
MAJIKONVINAZION (which I even mis-spelt on the SnC shownotes isn’t
unpronoucable at all!
It means “magical combination” yes, of course it does!
