Things I Love Today: Nick Lowe

Don’t you love it when you “discover” a musician that you never really knew before but liked several of their songs? I just had one of these moments thanks to Terry Gross and iTunes.

I listened to a few minutes of the Fresh Air interview with Nick Lowe last night on my way home. I really liked his on-air performance of Hope for Us All and made a mental note to look him up. Only after downloading that song did I realize that this is the same guy behind the 1970’s hits Cruel to be Kind and So it Goes.

His smooth British voice and vintage beats are just perfect for a foggy day like today. Along with The Underdog from my new Paste CD, I’m really rocking out 😉
