Thao with The Get Down Stay Down






Hi, this is Mukta. Make sure to check out the Baron Boombox regularly because I, and a few other people, will be bringing you some pretty sweet tunes (:
Enjoy!

Thao with The Get Down Stay Down is a San Francisco based, Arlington, Virginia bred folk group fronted by female vocalist Thao Nguyen. Though at first it may be easy to focus on her out of tune vocal imperfections, after a few listens you'll be obsessing over each little quirk (in a good way). Her music is sincerely delivered and the lyrics are heartfelt.
When searching for her music, take note that labels vary. Thao Nguyen started as a soloist when she released her first album, Like the Linens. Soon after she decided to go simply by Thao, because people couldn't pronounce her last name. When releasing her second album, We Brave Bee Stings and All, she included her touring band The Get Down Stay Down. Itunes labels her only as Thao, but her myspace and website have her listed as Thao with The Get Down Stay Down.

Thao with the Get Down Stay Down is currently on tour. If you have a chance, definitely check them out.
Friday, August 1 - Phoenix Grille @ UCI
Saturday, August 2 - Troubadour, West Hollywood

  2. Hey Zack!
    I think I like seeqpod more than boomp3 too. I couldn't find many artists that I liked on boomp3 so I copied you and sure enough, seeqpod had music that I liked (:

    Thanks for the welcome. I think I should be welcoming you too because your first post was just yesterday.

    Welcome!
    haha :D

    Will I be seeing you on Friday at the workshop thing??
