Friday Nerdy Music Links: Three Rivers Edition!

Happy Friday, music nerds!

Today’s edition of Friday Nerdy Music Links will be brief, because Miss Music Nerd has been running herself ragged this week working on a project to be announced at a later date. (Part of my extramusical adventures, though not nearly as exciting or glamorous as that may sound!)
