My Easter Gift To You

Well, it‘s Easter weekend, that means chocolate for breakfast is socially acceptable, and the Easter Bunny's gonna make a mess all over my living room. (He always leaves some eggs near a heater that I fail to find until it's too late.)

I’m not sure what your traditions include, but at my house there was always an extra gift waiting for me to go along with whatever the Easter bunny dropped off. It was usually something like a new T-shirt or a maybe a movie or a CD I’d had my eye on.

Today, I’m going to pass that tradition on to you...with a musical gift!



Andrew Sisk is a New Brunswicker (his dad taught me in High School) who has been making music with various different names over the years. There’s his folk-rock project Share and minimalist pop duo Coco et Co. As well as his contributions to east coast indie acts Sleepless Nights and Jenn Grant. He’s now shedding the band names and other monikers to deliver the Broadcaster EP as a solo artist.

Andrew has recorded four songs and he’s made them available for download (with the option to “name your price”...so whatever you wanna pay – no minimum....though I’d encourage you to give something to help out an artist.)

My gift is to tell you about it and offer you the stream of the album as a preview:



Andrew is going to be stopping by Wilser’s Room on May 21st, if you want to check out the music live. Have a great weekend!

BONUS:

Because it’s Easter, I want to share one of my favourite holiday themed comedy bits from the great Jim Gaffigan (this is just the part about Easter, but he does a bunch of 'em in the longer segment):
