Inga Liljeström - Phoenix

This is a wonderfully atmospheric album from Inga. She is a very clever girl. And Australian. This track is from her second album Elk

How can you not love her?

Emiliana Torrini - Wednesdays Child

I forget how I was introduced to this diamond. Which is a shame. Full respect to whomever switched me on to her. Wednesday’s Child is a track from her fabulous CD Love in the Time of Science which goes from soft and duvet like, to Shirley Bassey Big on the track Telepathy. Her georgous Fisherman’s Woman CD is a total must have also, but more about that later

Ane Brun - “To Let Myself Go” from the album “A Temporary Drive”

Ane is an excellent songwriter and singer from Norway. Here are a couple of tracks from her lovely 2005 CD “A Temporary Drive“. Her other two CD’s, “Spending Time With Morgan” and “Duets” are also well worth tracking down.

The Ditty Bops - Aluminum Can

Never had I have heard anything like these two.
When Kerry sent me a track of theirs I just had to go get the CD.
Fab mad.

I am jealous if you have seen them live.

No video linked here. You are gonna have to explore their Universe… It is worth it.

Gabby La La - Boogie Woogie Man in a Black Dress

You either love her quirky lyrics and vocals, or you hate her. I love it.

(I guess we will never know… But maybe if you buy her CD you will find out. Go buy it anyway, it is fun)

Nina Nastasia - ‘I Will Never Marry’ from the album ‘Dogs‘

Regina Spektor - Eight Miles High, Live @ Grenoble 2005

A virtual friend from the USA switched me onto Regina.
I have seen her twice in the UK, and I am hooked.

Regina Spektor - Flowers

Totally BLOW MY MIND GIGS. I mean, really, she stops the crowd dead.
If you get a chance - go see her.

Totally in a league of their own in my opinion. Fabulous and very clever bunnies.
I urge you to check out their website, and do a MySpace search on EinsteinBarbie for more lovelyness.

Lhasa De Sela - Anywhere On This Road

According to Wiki - Lhasa was born in New York of a Mexican father of Panamanian-Polish-French-Spanish descent and an American mother of Lebanese-Scottish-Russian Jewish descent.

What a mix.

Fabulous.
