Chic Gamine at La Tulipe // Credit: Tete Sometimes, in all this noise, I miss hearing a simple voice, especially female voices. Looking at my personal list of 2011's top 10 records, none of them were female fronted. So to show some love for those that sometimes get overlooked, here are four great female fronted songs to listen to right now. If I wanted to be honest I'd admit that I looked for these songs to keep me from listening to old Tori Amos records. All from the (legal) [...]
Seems I am incapable of extricating myself from the sound of Christmas or in this case from the songs whose natural habitat is forever blanketed in fluffy ice matter. 'All The Things We Were Supposed To Be' is really quite heartbreaking and is taken from Amy Bezunartea's current album 'Restaurant & Bars'. Being someone who has never picked up as much as a triangle I am obviously open to contradiction but it sounds like this song is composed purely of a voice and some sparse piano keys. Why then am I so teared up that a trip outside in the [...]

MP3 : Doubles MP3 : All The Things We Were Supposed to Be My inbox still gets bombed every day with new music and it's tough to sort through everything and give it a proper listen, much less read the emails. This is a topic I'm writing for a larger post, but just wanted to throw it out there. So when I do hear something and immediately like it, it's such a rare, great moment that I end up playing the new record or song or whatever over and over [...]
Photo by Debora Francis I LOVE being a music blogger; I get surprises in my inbox all the time. Like the one I got the other day about Amy Bezunartea's "Restaurants & Bars" - which comes out on November 2. The record was produced, recorded and mixed by John Agnello (Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr.) and comes out on Kiam Records. The leadoff single is called "Doubles". No, it's not about tennis. The slow acoustic strummer is about loving someone who works too much - which I can relate [...]
The self-denial of this song is priceless. It passes through day-to-day existence and asks, "Will you love me as I wither?" And Amy Bezunartea delivers it all in a sweet, unconcerned voice, with backing instrumentals that have that pop feel I'm a sucker for. Amy Bezunartea is a Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter, whose debut record, Restaurants & Bars , will be released on November 2 of this year. She's signed to Jennifer O'Connor's label Kiam Records.

Gentle folk music seems appropriate considering its rained in our town for at least 24 straigh hours. Luckily, I was fortunate to find the great new album from Amy Bezunartea in my inbox today, which is titled Restaurants and Bars . It will be released by Kiam Records on November 2nd, and if this single is any indication it will be full of soft melodies, delicate strumming and Merritt-esque poetry. If you ask me, that sounds like a great record to get to [...]
