Miss Olga...

Well, we don't talk much about good chickadees making music around here, so I thought I'd promote this gal a bit...

I'm going to see Olga & her husband (Jimbo Mathus (www.jimbomathus.net) at my favorite spot (http://www.greenparrot.com/) in Key West tomorrow nite and I'm quite excited about it.

Olga's music is mellow, bluesy and she sings from her heart. I dig it.

Jimbo's pretty talented and well-versed (Squirrel Nut Zippers & several other projects), and these days, he's got a whole down-homey kind of Mississippi/Americana music thing going on. When the two of them play together, it's good stuff. (Listen to "What's The Matter With The Mill," an old Memphis Minnie song, on Olga's myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/laolga))
