Bailey Friendship Folk: Modern Folk   Red Molly Love and Other... Country: Americana  New & Notable Enation The Future is a Memory:...

With a strong and nuanced voice, Saraiya is able to bring emotion and personality to every phrase, even when the lyrics involve time machines, judgment day, or kisses. Its warm production is heightened by layers of delicate aural pleasures, like subtle background vocals, surf guitars, or ethereal violins or pedal steel guitar. Itís all very beautiful, well-crafted, and excellently mixed. Good stuff all around. Tribella — Thirteen Rock: Adult Alternative Pop/Rock This all-female pop/rock trio from Austin makes music that is sharp, smart, and terrifically tough to classify. Taking key elements of early-90's rock (think Throwing Muses but more ambitious with the time changes) and adding challenging technical playing that's rooted in prog-rock, they've nailed down a sound that will appeal to anyone who's interested in music that doesn't dumb it down. "My Guest List" is a propulsive, drum-driven track with a hook that'll get embedded in your head, and "WTKN" starts out as a straight-ahead rocker, but breaks down into a complex flurry of guitar notes and rhythmic stabs. Both tracks are exciting, well-crafted, and a lot of fun to listen to. And so is the rest of the album. Give it a go. Fitz and The Tantrums — Songs For A Break Up... Pop: 60’s Pop The latest wave of retro-Soul stars like Amy Winehouse, Duffy, and Adele need to watch out. There is a new kid on the block. Fitz and the Tantrums blend 60ís soul, scratchy-vinyl dance grooves, a sense of melodrama and irony, and a expressively soaring voice (think Tom Jones meets Roland Orzabal) for a fun five-song trek through the late-night realms of heartbreak. Artists Ourselves: Hello Morning Hello Morning Hello Morning Portland, Oregon’s music scene isn’t all doom, gloom, gray haze, and rain. Thankfully, our very own Kevin Breuner (host of CD Baby’s DIY Music Podcast) and Peter Swenson (host of CD Baby’s Music Discovery Podcast) have released a new album to remind us of that fact. Their anthemic Britpop sound does make use of some brooding tones, but soaring, emotive vocals and bright, chimey guitars paint a hopeful silver lining on those dark clouds. Like a catchier Radiohead, like a more restrained Jeff Buckley, and with touches of Coldplay and Keane (minus the pianos), Hello Morning proves on their debut recording that modern rock can be fertile ground for both interesting sonic experimentation AND infectious melodicism at the same time.     We communicate by email when it comes to your orders, but if you’d rather not get letters, specials, or other promotional emails (like this one), just click here to UNSUBSCRIBE.
