New Feature: The Adventures of Pete & Pete & Mark & Melissa
Former Miracle Legion and Polaris frontman Mark Mulachy tragically lost his wife late last year, and is now raising their three-year-old twin daughters alone. In response, a who's who (Thom Yorke, The National, Michael Stipe, Dinosaur Jr., Frank Black, Fountains Of Wayne, Ben Kweller, Josh Rouse, Juliana Hatfield, Elvis Perkins, and A.C. Newman for starters) of awesome indie rockers came out to support them with a benefit album covering 21 of his tracks, with 20 more to be released digitally on 9/29. The theme song to The Adventures of Pete & Pete, "Hey Sandy", has always been a nostalgic summertime staple for myself, and I hope anyone out there who has enjoyed his music would want to support this cause.

Polaris - Hey Sandy

There is absolutely nothing official about Highly Rec'd but we do hope you are able to find at least one new tune that helps you get through your month/week/year, which in turn gets you interested in these artists and you can then go support them in whatever way you choose. If you have no idea why you are receiving this and would like to be removed, please send a reply email to highlyrecd@gmail.com with the phrase: "OH HELL NO!" in the subject line, or if you would like to add a friend to the list, have them send an email with "SUBSCRIBE!!!" in the subject line, the three exclamation points are key. And in this spot you usually type words really small and then say the year you started: 2008. http://highlyrecd.blogspot.com - Get Rec'd!
