The music industry has gone through some major changes over the past five years. In just a short time, we've gone from LPs, to CDs, and now MP3s. The iPod has become the dominant media for listening to music.

As a small bookstore/cafe, we don't see the need to reinvent the wheel or change the course of musical history. We just know good music when we hear it, and look for the best way to get it into your hands and ears. You won't necessarily find every album available, but we hope you'll find music in our store that you haven't heard before, or a long lost classic that stands the test of time.

For us, it's still easiest to display CDs, but we also understand that your tastes vary, so you'll find an eclectic selection of jazz, world, rock, classical, reggae, folks, and even soundtracks that speak to your inner muse. We're also looking for ways to let you bring in your iPod and simply download what you like if you can't find it on our shelves.

So let your tastes wander, and uncover something that moves you.

Album of the Month:
Love On the Inside: Sugarland

"Love On The Inside is just that...it is a recording full of love," Kristian Bush says. "It's in the strings and wood of the instruments, in the vocal chords, in the hearts that beat behind them and in the words that flood out through them into microphones. Our hope is that new Sugarland fans and old ones alike will hear this album and feel like the soundtrack to their life is magically playing in front of them."

Putumayo Presents: Brazilian Lounge
"Putumayo's latest excursion into chill-out features twelve urbane tracks that, even at their most laid-back (and Brazilians have raised this state of being to an art form) are saturated with a languid, sweaty tropical ardor. Icy, metronome-like beats and electronica are powerless against a Carioca heat-wave, just as a cold Brahma cerveja (beer), while momentarily refreshing, cannot affect prevailing weather patterns. ."
