Here’s a Monday Mixtape for you featuring some random songs from some great artists. Some I’ve known about and enjoyed for quite a while now (such as Brandi Carlile and She & Him) while others are new to my music library (like Melanie Penn and The Civil Wars).

Circus Song

Album: Wake Up Love
Artist: Melanie Penn

Way To You

Album: XOBC (EP)
Artist: Brandi Carlile

Charmed Life

Album: Ten Out of Tenn, Vol. 3
Artist: Joy Williams

Over It Over Again

Album: Volume Two
Artist: She & Him

M79

Album: Vampire Weekend
Artist: Vampire Weekend

Can’t Say No

Album: Songs For A Sinking Ship
Artist: April Smith & The Great Picture Show

Ten Cent Blues

How You Remember

Album: Burn & Shiver
Artist: Azure Ray

Poison & Wine

Album: Poison & Wine Single

Burn Out My Eyes

I’m especially fond of “Poison & Wine” by The Civil Wars. I’ve listened to it at least a dozen or so times in the last week – such a beautiful melody. Also check out the amazing music video they made for the song. And if you’re into live music and/or free music, download The Civil Wars – Live At Eddie’s Attic.

Here’s the list of the above songs in this week’s Monday Mixtape iMix on iTunes.

Are any of these songs new to you? Which do you like best?

    Ooh… I *love& M79! One of my favorite Vampire Weekend songs. And the Eisley one is one of the only ones I actually liked on their 2nd album (3rd one sounds pretty good based on the Fire Kite EP though).
