Meyer's just an average person. That's her greatest strength and her greatest weakness as a performing artist. Yael Meyer has a pleasant voice. The Chilean born, Los Angeles-based singer writes pleasant lyrics with pleasant melodies. She sounds like the kid sister you wished you had if you were on a '60s television sitcom.

"But it's better when I'm with you." "Sometimes like water, sometimes like something you would hear on the radio, sometimes like outerspace and sometimes like a song you just can't get out of your head..." Minus the water, Yael Meyer fulfills her myspace description under the "sounds like" box. About a month ago, Heartbeat EP was released by the one-woman band Yael Meyer. She writes, produces, sings, and plays. The piano is always slow, and the guitar nothing fancy. However, such simplicity of an artist goes a long [...]

Layered electronica. Acoustic guitar. Hushed female vocals. Yael Meyer . Oh, and bells, bells, bells.
