Free Music Friday: Map - Pistols and Pearls

Map is a beautiful indie pop/shoegazey band that's been putting out great record after great record on Velvet Blue Music for the last 10 years. Josh Dooley has worked with Richard Swift and Frank Lenz, as well as had stints playing in Starflyer 59 (Leave Here a Stranger and My Island). I've had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with Josh and he's a cool dude. Map even played live in my basement.

Josh has now released a personal best of for free called Pistols and Pearls. I wish there had been another song or two added to the album but it's a great compilation of his work from 2000-2009 and for those who have never listened to Map, a great introduction to an underrated and largely unknown band.
