SONG OF THE DAY (#238)

'on a saturday,' by jacob golden

during the past few weeks i've gotten to a few text messages from my sister telling me how awesome jacob golden is. so i finally took her advice and gave a listen. she was right! he is very awesome. and he comes comes from the golden state [gotta support my brethren], which may or may not have anything to do with his name. i'm guessing it might, 'cos honestly, who's named jacob golden?

jacob's been kickin' it solo since his previous band, birthday, went kaput. he's released to solo albums, the most recent being 'revenge songs,' from which these three songs come from. 'on a saturday' was also featured on the last episode of 'the o.c.' [i've been missing that show lately. i need me some more seth and taylor--but mostly just taylor--know what i'm sayin'?]. so if you like your elliot smith without the doom and gloom, your ray lamontagne, et al, then jacob is your golden boy.
