Dirty Cartoons - Menomena : First of all, GO PORTLAND BANDS!!! WOOT!! I was pleasantly surprised by Menomenas new album. I have listened to them for awhile but this album is on another level from their previous work. This song, specifically, took my breath away the first time I heard it. I can't wait to see them live TOMORROW NIGHT!! :)
For Now - People Eating People : While at Bumbershoot last weekend a friend suggested we go the EMP Sky Church venue and People Eating People happened to be the band that fit into out schedule. It turned out that I fell in like with Nouela Johnston (Front woman of the group). She could go anywhere with her piano and knock your socks off. Her voice is powerful at times but can beautiful and light. Her piano skills are ridiculous. I chose this song because it's just her without a band and I think she does tremendously well without any extras. Also a local band (Seattle) so that's a bonus.
The Shore - Basia Bulat : I discovered this song while spending hours on end watching The Take Away Shows . I loved her song In The Night but hadn't realized she had come out with a new album. The shore is a sweet sounding, slower-paced song. It fits Bulat's voice well.
