It’s a pretty cool thing when you find out that someone whose work you enjoy, enjoys your work right back.
Whitney Matheson, a pop culture writer and blogger for USA Today unveiled her list of top ten music podcasts today, and Coverville was number 3 (surrounded by luminaries like NPR and WEXP, no less).
Whitney says “Many have already discovered this podcast, which is devoted to the glory of cover songs. Each week obscure and familiar covers come together, generally with a underlying theme. Even though some tunes may be tough to take, the podcast’s charm is hard to deny.”
And to that, I say “thank you”! (And subscribe to the AAC version to add the ability to skip over songs you don’t like!)
See the whole list – and discover some of her other favorites.
I religiously follow PopCandy and I’m so glad Whitney posted this link so that I could discover how awesome this site is. I LOVE covers! I look forward to listening to the podcasts, I only wish I had found out about you sooner.
Hey – if you love covers, and have the funds, drop a little money with Brian, become a citizen and get all the back episodes on DVD format – I’ve got DVDs and DVDs worth of them… and they make great listens for a long drive…
I started listening about ep 423; I’ve since started listening from the beginning, and it’s an interesting evolutionary journey Brian’s been on.
I read the Candy everyday. Well, all day every day actually because I’m also addicted to the forums. ANYway, I love interesting covers, so I was thrilled when Whitney introduced me to this podcast. I’ve been spending most of my afternoon listening to back ep’s.
Addtionally, your podcast works great with Google Listen.
Great podcast, glad to be on this list with you as one of only 2 little guys! And from the looks of it we’re the smallest. Check out our show if you haven’t at http://sockmonkeysound.com 🙂
