Postage is a proud contributor to Philadelphia based “New Music Incubator” Shaking Through. A collaboration of Weather Vane Music and WXPN. As strong supporters of up and coming artists, it warms our hearts when fantastic talent gets noticed and all of that hard work seems to be paying off. Since her featured Shaking Through Episode, Sharon Van Etten has been popping up on my radar regularly. Whether through NPR podcasts or Pitchfork Reviews of her New Album, Sharon seems to be making some real headway in the journey from just passion to passion and profit. In case you missed her episode catch it again below and don’t forget to download her free single “Love More” produced by Weathervane. Good luck Sharon.

PENNSYLVANIA REPRESENTS – ON: THE ROAD ::
Last night I had the pleasure of watching “The Road” a second time. The first was at a Philadelphia film society special screening shortly after the film was completed and shortly before the film began the festival circuit. The second and most recent time I clicked a few buttons on my Apple TV and was able to rent it. Love tech. The Road is a film adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Cormac McCarthy whose name may sound familiar to film buffs for he also wrote the book “No Country for Old Men.”
