A lot of things have been written about Ryan Lynch's irresistible fey lyrics and his Legolas platypus looks. A lot has also been said abouthis band Girls, his former (and increasingly mythical) band Holy Shit, and the new outfit,Dominant Legs. That's why we haven't bothered writing anything, we just got him to choose ten songs to share with you. Listen and download below, click on the image for more info on each act. This is what Ryan had to say about the songs:This is basically a list of tracks I often come back to. They are groups or individuals who have influenced me. "I Like Love" is a great example of Nile Rodgers guitar playing. Holy Shit and Magic Bullets are examples of groups that have touched me personally as well as musically and the final James song, "Hymn from a Village," is a perfect balance of angst and beautiful pop song writing.
