Support Mother Jones this Giving Tuesday

Did you know Giving Tuesday got started, back in 2012, explicitly to fight against the commercial corruption of Thanksgiving with its Black Friday and Cyber Monday? That’s awesome! And what better way to mark the day than with a Giving Tuesday donation to Mother Jones that will help fight corruption of all sorts, day in and day out. Our finances are rough right now and we could really use a Giving Tuesday boost. Please help us make the most of this heightened day of giving if you can right now.

Album Review

Tracyanne and Danny
Tracyanne and Danny
Merge

Folks pining for the melancholy sweetness of the currently inactive Scottish band Camera Obscura can take solace in this lovely collaboration between Tracyanne Campbell, the group’s singer, and Britain’s Danny Couglan, a.k.a. Crybaby. Their tender voices, dreamy melodies, lonesome lyrics, and overall air of regretful contemplation will enchant diehard romantics and anybody else who loves beautiful folk-pop. “Jacqueline” harks back to eerie ’50s teen ballads, while “The Honeymooners” marries girl-group drama and confessional intimacy. Tracyanne and Danny is a “small” record that touches the heart in ways that bigger, flashier efforts never could.
