Missed in 2012

may not be a true “Missed in 2012″ as I just came across her today, but since the two tracks below premiered two and three months ago and I’ve listened to each at least 10 times today, I’m going to lump her in.  The London based singer makes hard to categorize music dipping its toes into R&B, avant-garde, and chamber pop pools without ever coming across as trying.  At times she sounds like the female answer to and then suddenly a mature .  Enjoy the two stellar cuts from her upcoming debut full length Sing To The Moon (due out March 4th) ”Like the Morning Dew” and “She” and as an added bonus check out her latest single “Green Garden” HERE.

Missed in 2011

Normally I find myself frustrated with bands whose names bring up strange results on Google, but thankfully I know enough to put “ Band” in the search bar.  Welcome to a wonderful little slice of indie done in a ear shakingly and retrotastically funderfull style reminiscent of the big stadium bands of the 70′s.  It really sound like a lost ELO album at times, produced by Brian May, and run through a 1974 Stereophonic rock music maker.  The band is based out of New York and is releasing a new album in February of 2012 which we are increasingly excited about.  The big single out right now is “We are Young- feat. ” and it’s worth a listen or ten.  Pick up their first album “Aim and Ignite” on iTunes, but first check out the opening track, “Be Calm.”
