My whole family and I are big Brett Dennen Fans. My kids still talk about seeing him performance at a Tully's coffee shop a few years back for a KMTT Mountain Music Loung segment here in Seattle. Barefoot, full of charm, energy, enthusiasm, and optimism, Dennen and his music are infectious. Dennen's sound has continued to grow with each new album as his backing band has grown in numbers, but musically he never strays too far from what he has done so well for so long and this is just fine by me. I do like the cool '70's vibe that he has brought to many of the songs on this collection and I just love the album overall....and so will you!
Sydney (I'll Come Running)
I don't get to as many live shows as I would like, but nothing was going to stop me from seeing The Kills when they arrive in Seattle next month. Alison Mosshard and Jamie Hince are touring in support of their new album Blood Pressures. This album is another winner from the duo that blew me away with their last album Midnight Boom. While it is not really fair to compare The Kills to the White Stripes I will. Like Jack and Meg White, Mosshard and Hince find a way to do more with less in fantastic ways...and that is not a bad thing.
Satelite
I'm From Barcelona is the biggest band in Sweden. Literally. And at 29 members, this band from Jönköping, Sweden, is also making some of the poppiest and happiest songs at home and abroad. One might think that musically, a band with so many members would be all over the place. This is not he case. The ten songs on Forever Today are so well conceived and they go together like a basket and a blanket on a summer's day picnic.
Get In Line
