Martina Topley-Bird – Quixotic

Martina Topley Bird - Quixotic

This debut release from 2003 is just faultless.
Her new album ‘The Blue God’ is out this month, not that I need an excuse to get Quixotic out to play.

Corrina Repp – The Absent and the Distant

Corrina Repp The Absent and the Distant

A lovely release from 2006. Very soft and gentle.
She is off busy collaborating 2007/2008, but should provide another solo release after that.
I do hope so.

Phoebe Killdeer and the Short Straws – Weather’s Coming

Phoebe Killdeer Weathers Coming

Released this month is this gem of an album. Miles away from the fun and frolics of her Nouvelle Vague involvement, this is more sultry/upbeat Waits. Nice and dark in places, but upbeat to.

Juliette And The Licks – Four to the Floor

Juliette and the Licks - Four on the Floor

It’s been a bit of an I-need-the-gurlz-to-rock day, so what better than the totally nuts Juliette Lewis and her gang.
