Considered to be one of Austin, TX's best up-and-coming young artists, here's Emily Wolfe with a track from her debut record Director's Notes . Her album (which I'm looking forward to hearing) is rooted in folky-pop melodies accompanied by a unique, soothing vocal quality, and polished with catchy lyrics about the ups and downs of young love. Check out " Lion Heart ", vocally similar to Land of Talk's Elizabeth Powell, musically similar to Broken Social Scene.

Land of Talk - Color Me Badd ( buy )
A quick re-up here. The Barr Brothers debut came across my desk halfway through last year, and it was a jaw dropping collection set of songs. "Beggar in the Morning" was probably my favorite song of 2010, and the album has aged like vintage wine or single malts. Secret City made the smart move to distribute this beautiful record. Rather than review it again, I just wanted to bring attention to the re-release. Grab this now, folks. You won't be sorry. At the end of the day, it's too easy to [...]
There was a special Polaris Salon listening session presented by CHARTattack's Aaron Brophy about this album back in April. Can't say it blew me away as I listened to it down there back then. Repeat listens once it made the Long List didn't sway me from that initial opinion either but maybe some of y'all might feel differently than I did?

The 2011 Polaris Prize Long List was announced last week, a list of forty Canadian albums collated from five-album lists submitted by the hundred-plus jurors several weeks ago. From this list, jurors vote again, and the ten-album Short List will be revealed July 6. Short list artists will receive $2,000 each, will perform at September's [...]

Frank Yang One crucial way that NXNE has become more like its bigger, cooler acronym-a-like cousin SXSW is the increase of day shows to go along with the official evening showcases. Of course, I didn't actually go to any of these new daytime events - the only afternoon party I hit up was one that had been happening for the last few years, the Kelp Records BBQ at the Global Village hostel, this year co-presented by the Brits at The Line Of Best Fit . After all - they [...]

Anton Corbijn It only took about six minutes via Twitter to announce the forty albums long-listed for the sixth edition of the Polaris Music Prize , we'll have the next three weeks to argue over their relative merits and come July 6, when the ten record-strong short list is announced, another couple months to hash those out before the September 19 gala in Toronto when a yet-to-be-determined grand jury declares their pick for the best Canadian album of the past year. And there's more at stake this year than in the past, [...]

Daniel Boud To say that it has been an improbable year and a half since Fucked Up's second album The Chemistry Of Common Life won the 2009 Polaris Music Prize would be a bit of an understatement. Beyond the long odds of a hardcore record by a band whose name is deemed unprintable by many media outlets earning the title of "best Canadian album" of the 2008-09 season, you have the band's frontman - a big, bearded fellow with a penchant for stripping down to his shorts [...]
