Artist:
-
Album:Cross Your Fingers
-
Track:Blackberry Stone
I just found out about this little dove- she's coming to NY pretty soon but I heard that she's pretty well-founded in the brit indie scene? Is that correct, you Brits out there?
Regardless, I like her light acoustic folk ballads wrapped in a bit of melancholy....reminds me of Jaymay colored in grey...
check out a video:

Well you can find my thoughts on her album and live show in that handy new Latest Post About box the Mog techies have installed...
She's definitely a very talented lass, and very nice in person... I was meant to see her twice last week actually, but was unable to go...
Wow.. I really like her style. Thanks for posting this. Her voice is awesome!
suddenly I'm 10 times sadder than I was before I watched this, but it's okay because her talent is so incredible!
Oh also, becareful the shows don't get cancelled - last year she got thrownout of one of her own UK gigs for being underage... probably why all her latest gigs over here were in churches
haha that's so typical. American puritanism fettering young talents.
Deg- it's happy dystopia baby! (in Michael Stipe's words)
Jox- will go find ur post right now. great minds think alike :)
She’s musical, intelligent and peppers a “thin, thin millimeter shell” of rock throughout. I like her. Thanks!
Yeah. I may not be a Brit, but I'm def an Anglophile. And I've got the Joxer to thank for tipping me to Laura - a kid with a future.
Great songs here, loving both the videos
thanks rawk :) cool new avator ps.
and a thank you right back at ya!
I'm not sure who turned me on to her music, but it was someone here. I was immediately smitten.
the first video gets really rad at about three minutes. thanks for sharing!
Yea in Britain we've had Ghosts pushed on us for a while. We are starting to get Lykke Li pushed on us now too; who I'd already heard of thanks to yourself.
yeah Lykke Li's trance floated past us....crazy how buzz travels on these blogs these days....
Ben- glad your ears are open regardless!
There are still tickets available to the NYC Mercury Lounge gig tonight! After catching her last time she was in town you can be guaranteed I'll be there...
