.vinyl me please february

The album of the month is Big Bill Broonzy Sings Folk Songs. I'm pretty diverse in my tastes so I'm curious to give it a listen. Here's what I bought from the membership store....

Grimes - Geidi Primes
First Grimes album? The songs on here are not as produced as her latest albums but being a completist I picked it up nonetheless.

Lizzo - Big Grrrl Small World
Lizzo opened for Sleater-Kinney. That's how I first heard of her. The band usually has amazing openers when they tour. I did not see Lizzo at any of the shows I attended but was drawn to her first album LizzoBangers when listening on Spotify. I really need to pick this one up too. Her latest single she's been promoting on Instagram "My Skin" which has a powerful message of loving yourself no matter your size, shape, color. Being a Missy Elliot fan I highly recommend Lizzo.

Savages - Adore Life
I was hooked after listening to their previous album on Spotify, I actually went back to the online store and purchased Adore Life a week later. This album has taunted me for the past week displayed in tons of record stores. I kept telling myself, "Any day now! It's coming in the mail! Hold on!" My favorite song is "Surrender." I CANNOT wait to see them in late March. It got to the point where I was actually considering Irving Plaza and taking the late train home to see them perform. Luckily they are playing closer to me so I don't have to go through that ordeal.
