Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas. Washed Out Just As Hot.

Mmmm. Buffalo Chicken.

Mmmmm. Mmmmm. Quesadillas.

Those two belong together.

Definitely do not be scared to make these Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas.

If you like Buffalo Wings, this recipe has all of the fab flavors. Grilled tortillas filled with hot sauce flavored chicken, blue cheese, sour cream and celery. So good.

While running this morning I was listening to a mix playlist of new (to me) music that I wanted to pay more attention to.

Let me tell you, Washed Out got my attention.

Washed Out is the project of Atlanta, Georgia based Ernest Greene. His first full length album, ‘Within And Without’ was released this past July.

How’s this for an album cover?

Nice. But Eyes Be Closed is far nicer. Synth heavy, moody, rhythm filled make out music.

If you have to be up at 5:22 am on a Monday morning, Washed Out is the way to start the day.

Take in this video.

Although I have no desire to return to Iceland anytime soon, the dreamy beauty of the song against such stunning scenery reminds me of what a trip it was to be there.

Check out Washed Out on Facebook and Myspace.

You can buy Washed Out’s music at Sub Pop Records or from Ernest Greene’s Website.

Cheers!
