Sufjan Stevens
Apparently still engaged in cleaning out his computer hard drive Sufjan Stevens has unearthed yet another demo from his archives, this time his track ”Casimir Pulaski Day.” Featured on his landmark album celebrating the great state of Illinois, the song makes reference to the Revolutionary War hero, who once saved the life of George Washington and eventually became a general in the Continental Army. Wouldn’t you know it, Casimir Pulaski Day is today. Click here on Stevens’ Tumblr page to listen to the demo.

For an excellent rsnposee to this song—and a pointed critique of Sufjan’s perceived closeted self-loathing—check out “Not Everyone, Not You” by my buddy Soren Andrew and The Staves.
