Alex Winston - Velvet Elvis


Alex Winston is a enigmatic artist who has an appealing quality to her storytelling. We saw it with Locomotive and it continues with Velvet Elvis. I'm looking forward to checking out a full LP release from the talented chanteuse.

Marina & The Diamonds - Radioactive (UK)


Oh Marina, I never thought you would produce the type of song that would propel me to put my hands up in the air and want to go dancing! I adored Ms. Diamantis' debut album and her sophomore LP is shaping up nicely as she teases her fans with tracks from the record. Radioactive sounds like nothing from the first album and there's nothing wrong with that especially in trying to give this era a distinct sound and feel.
