Video: Andreya Triana - A Town Called Obsolete
By Lizelle Jackson | June 18, 2010
Good old-fashioned soul. Can’t ask for anything more.
Just in case you haven’t already check out Andreya Triana’s “Lost Where I Belong” sampler…do so. Make sure you keep those eyes peeled for her much awaited debut release by the same title due out August 23rd. I’ve been waiting for years so you know I’m stoked.

By Lizelle Jackson | April 15, 2010
This album has been on rotate as of late. Take one half of the Danish group Owusu & Hannibal and pair his productions with the the sultry vocals of lead singer Coco and what do you end up with? Smooth Scandinavian soul that everyone in the family can enjoy. Quadron is the real deal.

Cast Spells - Pioneer Scalps
By Lizelle Jackson | March 1, 2010
I’ve been in a bit of a folky/indie mood as of late…and this track from Cast Spells has been hitting the spot. Lead singer David Davidson (Maps & Atlases) strangely reminds me a bit of the awesome Damon Albarn (lead singer of Gorillaz, Blur and The Good, The Bad & The Queen). Anyway, is worth a listen…
