Not too long ago, Evan Dando was an alternative music pin-up--and for good reason. His guitar-pop with a sometimes country twinge produced at least a dozen hook-filled tracks that never grow tiresome. The D Man has recently been re-living summers past and cannot stop spinning The Lemonheads. The sweet meloncholy that permeates Dando's songs taps into a vein that has nothing to do with the drugs that he often laments. Enjoy "Confetti" or check out "Rudderless" and "Backbone" here. Or maybe a back-porch version of "It's About Time." Because I know you've probably only heard this and this.
Speaking of that subtle country vibe, if someone in Nashville covers "It's A Shame About Ray" they will finally be cool or at the very least would have a justifiable hit. Yep, that's Johnny Depp in the video. He is pretty cool too.
