Sufjan Stevens - "John Wayne Gacy, Jr."

"Music Video using educational films from the 50s and anonymous family footage. Dir: Claire Carré." In honor of the upcoming Halloween, here's a haunting song. It's from Sufjan Stevens' 2005 album Illinois, which is extremely varied and creative (and the rest isn't as dark as this song).

VV Brown - "Crying Blood"

She'll be doing a live session at KCRW next week.

Rodrigo y Gabriela - "Buster Voodoo"

This is from their new album. They're fantastic live.

Baaba Maal - "Television"

Here's his recent live session at KCRW.

David Gray - "Fugitive"

It's slightly out of synch, but this is the official version from David Gray's channel. What I've heard so far of the new album is quite good.
