Becca Schack is an enigmatic electro-pop artist, some describe as a cross between the xx and Robyn. "Your Restaurant" will light up your dance floor and airwaves with it's full flavored, uptempo, thumping beat and infectious lyrics. Could Becca be a new force to be reckoned with? If this track is anything to foreshadow what's to come, her success is within reach. "The path to finding my musical voice all began with locking myself in my room and writing love songs," Becca says. "I have shaped my sound through dancing in clubs, playing in [...]

Becca Stevens is a New York-based singer, composer and instrumentalist whose debut for Sunnyside Records , Weightless , was released yesterday. It is her second album, following Tea Bye Sea , which she self-released in 2008. In addition to eight original compositions, the album features interpretations of songs by Animal Collective, Iron & Wine, Seal, and The Smiths . Bold stuff, but thankfully her lovely vocals and words float over the lush accompaniment and jazzy flourishes melt into sparse folk like reveries that are both seductive and compelling. Her [...]
I'm sitting here trying to figure out what this wonderful sound is; Becca Stevens, symptoms of folk pop, jazz influences, beautiful vocals and harmonies...and a cover of Animal Collective's My Girl. For a few moments I want to say it's indie pop, other moments it's something else; something jazzy-all within one song. Stevens' voice told my ears to look back in the music playlists and sure enough, It's that Becca Stevens; the vocals on the amazing Bjorkestra album, Enjoy!. Awesome, I am already looking that much more forward to Weightless, the Becca Stevens Band's release this week. [...]
![[8/1000 Albums]Sarah McLachlan- Surfacing](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2683920_lg.jpg)
by teepoo Before this album came out, Sarah McLachlan could be passed on as some sorta of Enya wannabe. Surfacing changed this and established the Canadian singer and songwriter as a master of the moody confessional and the soft focus ethereal atmosphere. The album is full of mysteries shrouded in mist and may take a few spins to appreciate her voice that lacks affection and inflection, but despite this gives you a calm musical refuge. Make your listening experience more [...]

I'll be not attending again this year, so who plays or doesn't play isn't going to much affect me. Just send me good music if you want me to post it. Kthx. I'm gonna jump right in with my pick of the litter. The Pack A.D., from the home of the 2010 Winter [...]
