Five Friday Favorites

by ChordStrike at 1:52 PM PDT, March 20, 2009

For those of you ready to start your weekend with some new music, here are a few new discs in rotation that you might enjoy. Disagree? Got any better suggestions? Let us know by nominating other new releases in high rotation on your stereo or MP3 player to help us find and share new music with our readers in future editions of the Five Friday Favorites post.

Just nominate them in by searching for your favorites in the "Add more products to the tag fridayfavorites" field at the bottom of this page and click the "Add Tag" button for us to find them.


16 year old Australian Gabriella Cilmi and her retro chanteuse musings run circles around comparable young divas today including Amy Winehouse, Duffy, and Adele. Watch for this young Aussie to go big.

Marc Olson and Gary Louris, two former front members of The Jayhawks, offer up a good soundtrack to accompany a happy hour sojourn in a dusty remote tavern with a poetic blend that's a little bit Alt and a little bit Country.


So you're looking for something a little bit heavier yet melodic? Something with a little more Foo Fighters, you say? Then sit back, relax, and take a flight with People In Planes. Cruising altitude is just above the stratosphere.

With Plunt, Montreal Alt-Indie Femme Rock collides with 80's Euro Pop and a hint of Twang to keep things rooted. Fans of Sleater Kinney, come one and all.

Glasvegas radiate melodic Brit Pop with a dense and drone-filled sixties wall of sound à la Phil Spector. If you're looking for a little retro bombast to go with your shoegazing introspection, check this one out.
