Three New Albums

Three great new albums out today, including Amos Lee, the Fratellis, and Lissie. Wild Child and Sleigh Bells are also worth a listen.

The Fratellis' "Rock N Roll Will Break Your Heart" and "Seven Nights Seven Days" are both standout tracks. I wasn't planning on buying the album, but it's consistently great, upbeat rock pop. Their sound really hasn't so much as evolved in the several years since their last album. But that's OK.

Lissie Preview

Rolling Stones offers a sneak peek of the new Lissie album. Stream it here. "The Habit" is a great, rocking opening track.

New Lissie

Lissie announced the release date for her upcoming album "Back to Forever." Check it out on September 10 and stream "Shameless" now.

Favorite Females

Three of my favorite female artists all have albums releasing this Spring. Eleanor Friedberger's Personal Record will be out June 4. The first single "Stare at the Sun" is available now for download.

Lissie, who is all over the place at SXSW, will release her next album in "early summer." Love her. And Laura Marling will release "Once I Was An Eagle" on May 27. So talented of a singer, especially for one so young.

Cannot wait for these releases!

Lovin' Lissie

On a Springy day, I need some motivating music. Lissie's covers of Bad Romance and You Can Go Your Own Way on her LP Covered up with Flowers are the perfect antidote.  I love Lissie, and I hope she has some new tunes soon.
