A Taste:

The Dirty Projectors, Chet Baker

Phoenix has taken the indie rock world by storm. However, most importantly, they have the validation of the cast of The Hangover [Check out our exclusive video interview to see that…].

Right now, they continue to dazzle audiences across the U.S. and beyond in support of their phenomenal new album, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. It’s a swirling melodic masterwork worthy of your time. What went into Wolfgang? Well, we talked to vocalist Thomas Mars in this exclusive interview about what’s on his playlist.

Thomas shared his playlist with ARTISTdirect.com editor and Dolor author Rick Florino. Check it out below and don’t miss Phoenix!

Thomas Mars’ Playlist:

1. Minnie Riperton

Last night, we played Minnie Riperton.

2. The Dirty Projectors — Bitte Orca

I like the new Dirty Projectors record!

3. Chet Baker — Chet Baker Sings

Chet Baker is nice in the summer. I love Chet Baker Sings.
