Erin Saoirse Adair -- No Confusion

This song came to my attention because a friend of mine is producing the artist right now. He actually produced this particular track. I know nothing about this artist. However, I think it's best we all just keep our ears to the ground on this one. uhmkay?

Little Loud x Ariel Pink

Uhm, if you've read this blog you know how I feel about Little Loud's work. Gush-Gush-Gush, dude's amazing... You get it. Here's further proof though.

Tristram - Rhyme & Reason

Tristram is a band led by a guy named Tristram. This is evocative stuff in the vein of Bon Iver/Iron &Wine/Nick Drake/Devendra Banhart. They have their first proper release due Nov 15 via Broken Sound and I do believe this is an act to keep an eye on. Solid stuff here.

Craft Spells - Party Talk

Craft Spells have been on my radar for quite some time and I'm really happy with the strength of this song (their first physical release if I'm remembering correctly) and it's on the ever-awesome Captured Tracks to boot. Party Talk captures all the skewed poppy goodness that makes this project so good. You can hear the new wave influences in there too, but there is something almost soulful in a Stephen Merritt sort of way about the vocals. This one's infectious peeps.
