Matt Mays Cocaine Cowgirl

Alright, so it might not be the wedding song for your first dance, but it’s a great song nonetheless. I’ve been listening to it -- and the rest of the self-titled album “Matt Mays & El Torpedo” -- while breaking in my wedding shoes, pretending to listen to my mother drone on about wedding details, and performing various other around-the-house wedding-planning duties. Tagged as ‘Alternative-Country’ (which is soooo NOT my typical listening genre), this album plain-out rocks. And it’s a great driving song when you just need to get away from it all. This all-Canadian band is on tour through the summer, but if you don’t have time to see them in person (uh, you have a wedding to plan?), do yourself a favour and pick up their album. (I’d attach an .mp3, but I have a funny feeling that that’s not legal in this-here parts.)
