Not sure what this particular song is about, but I dig it. It's called "Three Portraits" and it's another slapdash upbeat offer from Long Beach Texan Joe Corrales, Jr., better known by his stage name Yppah. It's not the first time I've ventured into Yppah's enlightened catalogue, having explored another clever creation titled "Bushmills" back …

Last night, a very lovely person recommended this Texas trio to me. She didn't know how to pronounce their name. Neither do I. But here's a link to a You Tube video, where they actually say it during an encore, if that helps. Anyway, according to the internet, Khruangbin is a Thai word that literally …
