Song of the Day

Eisley - Brightly Wound

------------Why haven't I heard of Eisley before? The four siblings and cousin quintet have been together for about 12 years now, producing ten albums and an enormous amount of righteous dudette indie rock from Tyler, Texas, so I am ashamed that I haven't known of their existence until now. Thank you, Jess!

Eisley is named after the town in the Star Wars trilogy called Mos Eisley, which I only mention because it is fantastically nerdy and appropriately cool. The song "Brightly Wound" dances slowly around a child-like piano and lyrics painted with innocence and Neverland fantasy. Get "Brightly Wound" from Eisley's 2005 album Room Noises.


**If you click on the headline for today's song, it'll take you to a sweet clip of Eisley singing "Brightly Wound" live from Austin, Texas.
