Laura Veirs | July Flame
Raven Marching Band (2010)

Beach House | Teen Dream
Sub Pop (2010)

Review: Crazy Heart
Country discomfort: Jeff Bridges can't be beat
Every great actor has at least one washed-up, alcoholic, award-winning-country-singer role in him. For Jeff Bridges, it's "Bad" Blake, a former C&W legend now reduced to playing bowling alleys and dive bars in tiny towns in the Southwest.
