“Exaile is a pretty decent music player for GNOME
written in PyGTK which comes with features like tabbed playlists,
lyrics fetching, radio support, file browser, support for dynamic
and smart playlists, cover support, 10-band equalizer and more. The
latest version was released a few days ago and comes with several
bug fixes and minor issue fixes.

“Exaile has been around for quite some time and it continued to
improve over the years, keeping in the same time a clean, tidy
interface with the sidebar to the left, for fast access to the file
browser, playlists or music collection, and the playlist space
occupying the rest of the window. A nice feature is the support for
tabbed playlists, which allows quick access to several different
ones. Let me list some of the notable features which come with
Exaile 0.3.2.1:

* music collection support
* support for tabbed playlists
* dynamic and smart playlists
* devices support
* covers fetching
* lyrics fetching
* Internet radio support
* file browser”
