music monday: didymus & indie monday!

Hellooooo.  I am happy to be back here today, and I have some fun musical things to share with you!  Tomorrow I'll share some photos from our time with our guests last week :)

I wanted to let you know about a band called didymus.  This is a friend's new venture that I am really excited about.  The sound of Didymus reminds me a bit of radiohead, and maybe even some sunny day real estate (it's been a while.  not sure about that one ;D)?!  His new 3-song EP is called "The Twin".  To listen or buy head here (the EP is only $2!).

Another new musical venture that I'm quite excited about is called Indie Monday.  I went to middle school (in Hong Kong) with one of the folks involved in the project.  They feature a free song (and review) from a local (to Chicago I think!) band every Monday.  Also....this is really sweet...they are doing a headphone giveaway!  They are really nice headphones!  Watch the video below for info on how to win :)
          

 Also, I am seriously considering doing this to my head:

THOUGHTS?!

Maybe not quite as light with the ombre.  I'm kind of terrified to dye my hair.  It would only

be the second time ever!  And, the one thing I really do like about my hair is the color!  Eeee!

But I'm also (kind of) REALLY excited about the idea...hmm...
