One of the great things about having [Ben->] in the area recently has been that he’s been lending me some excellent music. Among his recent loans was Livin’ it Up When I Die, by The Electrics. They’re equal parts The Chieftans, Simple Minds, and Brave Combo, if you can imagine a thing — fun folk rock from Scotland with pipes, electric guitars, accordions, and rock drums. A couple of tracks from their next album are up on the site. Good fun dancing music.
