By now, I hope my love of female singer-songwriters is apparent and rejoiced by all those gentle listeners in the blogosphere, cause today I'm handing out a huge handfull that have caught my ear in the past few weeks. I hope to make this a bit of a reoccurring segment, mostly because there are a lot of artists out there that haven't released their demos or amazing singles yet (*cough* Laura
I was too busy being Mommy to even watch last night's episode but I checked ABC.com and these are the songs they have listed that played last night. I'm anxious to see it this evening because the ladies at work said it was a good show. Enjoy the music and have a WONDERFUL weekend! Brazilian Girls - "Good Time" Erin McCarley - "Gotta Figure This Out" Psapp - "I Want That" Shady Bard - "

Erin McCarley is one of those artists that was still unsigned the first time I heard their music, a but are now signed with big labels, just like Lenka . So although she's not a new discovery, I still want to share her music with you before she's going to be a (massive) hit. McCarley grew up in the Dallas suburb of Garland. In a way, her ideal childhood led to an unexpected wake-up call later in life. "It kind of gave me an unrealistic view of everything," McCarley notes with a laugh. "That's not how the world is, [...]
I love Izzie. A lot. It's not the easiest thing in the world to do you know, to confront someone that you KNOW is going to be an asshole to you and show them genuine care and affection even though they're nowhere NEAR deserving it. Nope, not easy at all. I liked last night's episode for a lot of reasons but that scene between her and Alex really got me. Katherine Heigl is pretty much the

The Hotel Cafe Tour House Of Blues October 16, 2008 Better Than: Staying at home, watching Grey's and washing my hair, both of which I love and one of which is soundtracked by several of the Hotel Café girls' songs--but I'll leave it up to you to guess which. Ingrid Michaelson, the way she is. (Courtney Clenney) Maybe you already know that the House of Blues is like an opera house with its exclusive balcony, vaulted [...]

Would you like some cheese to go with that Iron & Wine ? If so, Joshua Radin will be more than happy to oblige. Arriving two years after his Zach Braff -endorsed debut We Were Here , the all-too-aptly titled Simple Times doesn't appear to have moved too far away from wherever Here was. Like that album, it's another inoffensive, uninspiring set of indistinguishable love songs that range from subtle to slight to saccharine. Maybe I'm being too hard on him. After all, there are more than [...]

Ok, so I haven't watched all of "Here Comes The Flood" and I'm going to go ahead and apologize right now if these aren't all the songs or the right songs because to be honest, I've done no research. I was out of town and just haven't had the time. So, consider this my apology in advance if anything is wonky and my thanks to those of you who emailed wondering when I would put them up and for

So, I've been kinda stuck this week. There have been the usual fare of new bands and indie tracks, but I've been on a heavy diet of The Streets and Kings Of Leon. In fact, everything else has paled in comparison. Nevertheless, I managed to tear myself away last night, long enough to put this week's mixtape together. Of course, I've included favorite tracks off each previously mentioned album. I love Heaven For The Weather for the brilliant chorus: " I wanna go to heaven for the weather / and hell for the company / I wanna [...]

Folk-pop have always been my favorite. Why? When my sentiments disdain words, these songs make others understand.

While Sunday is the official last night of the festival -closing out with a special Next Big Nashville edition of Nashville Sunday Night at 3rd and Lindsley - Saturday night is the last real night of showcases, and you have nine to choose from before the official after party at City Hall. My pick of the evening is actually that after party - The Features and Jensen Sportag ? Sign me up. But earlier in the night you have lots of great stuff to choose from - particularly the Lake Fever showcase at [...]

Nate Albert While the rest of his former bandmates attempt to regenerate the ol' Mighty Mighty Bosstones magic on stage, ex-Bosstones guitarist/songwriter Nate Albert has been moving up the corporate ladder. Having enjoyed a second life as a producer (Street Dogs, the Explosion), artist manager (Bayside), and talent scout (Straylight Run), he's just been named VP of A&R at Universal Republic Records . Boston bands: this is your cue to stop reading this post and start senspacing demos. For reference, go back and check out the Plastics/Brakes/ Kickovers material Albert recorded after he left the [...]

Todavía no dispone de ningún trabajo publicado, pero a juzgar por las tres canciones disponibles en su myspace, y más concretamente por "Pitter-Pat", la cual incluyo en el presente post, la cosa promete bastante, ya que la música es muy buena y su voz super dulce. Así que, aunque todavía es un poco pronto para pronunciarse al respecto, lo menos que puedo hacer es mantenerme atento a ver si en su proximo álbum de debut está a la altura de las expectativas generadas. website myspace mp3: Erin [...]
