can't stand to wait the wait.

It's post #50. That's right. NOIA-050. But, I'm really thinking that the timeline will be long enough such that at now this blog is still a baby. As such, today I will share with you a new find for me: Baby Dayliner.
Baby Dayliner is the musical alias of New Yorker Ethan Marunas, and if you like The Smiths, David Bowie, Magnetic Fields, or wonder what a crooner might sound like over a new-wave sound, then you've found a new fancy.
Matt Berninger (frontman for The National) extols, "Baby Dayliner is a rare fearless original. This brainy record is jammed full of heart and moxie. It's a dance party for sexy intellects." Hell, even Aesop Rock can't get enough of this guy. Marunas was originally musically molded by classical, jazz, and hip-hop and his own music is all the better for it.
Baby Dayliner's debut was released over two years ago, and his sophomore album will be released on May 2nd. Both are through Brassland, home to The National and sister band Clogs.
I've got to go. I'm now in the mood to listen to The Smiths. Happy Monday and Allergy Season.
