On this wintry edition of God Bless Weirdmerica we have new tracks from the very cool I Need You Bad compilation- the weirdest ones, of course. Plus, we’re reminding everyone that Julianna Barwick had one of the best albums of 2013, and it was certainly New Weird American. Enjoy the show, and don’t forget to follow BTR on Facebook, Twitter, tumblr, Pinterest, and Instagram!
