The Daily Michigan: Mother's Day Music from Earthwork
Today on The Daily Michigan we continue our Mother's Day giveaways with a $30 Digital Download certificate from our good friends at Earthwork Music. While you can use the certificate for any three download discs they offer, we're going to suggest that you select Mother Moon by May Erlewine (aka Daisy May). Click through for a cool tune about Big Mama Brown.

Flat, black & circular: a Michigan original
Saturday was Record Store Day, a national celebration of independent record stores. Pitchfork Magazine, one of the premier independent music publications, posted their list of favorite used record stores in the country. Michigan got two shoutouts, Encore Records in Ann Arbor and Flat, Black & Circular in East Lansing. We have a whole bunch on FBC including a great video interview.
