Dan Bejar

Dan Bejar wears many hats while being in such groups as the New Pornographers, Destroyer, Swan Lake and now Hello Blue Roses. Hello Blue Roses is a new project that includes Dan Bejar and his main squeeze Sydney Vermont. The new song by Hello Blue Roses is titled "My Shadow Falls" and is making its way around the blogosphere. The song is a good song in its own right, but is not one of my favorite works from the prolific Bejar. I mainly wanted to take this opportunity to highlight other great Bejar works:

Hello Blue Roses - "My Shadow Falls"
Destroyer - "Rubies"
Destroyer - "European Oils"
Destroyer - "Painter in Your Pocket"
