(So much for posting this right after the show! Oops) Can you believe that Saturday was the first day of Fall? I squealed with excitement a bit and cried tears of happiness. Bring on the flannel, sweaters, and scarves! This week’s edition of Girl, Please! brought you sweet country sounds from across the years, new and old bluegrass with some country twang and indie folk-ness. Basically, babes on banjos yodeling and pouring their hearts out about guys who clearly are no good. Best combination of music, if you ask me!
