Round Up


Here’s a round up of what’s come across my desk recently but still haven’t had a chance to write full reviews about yet:

Jonathan Kriesberg & Nelson Veras lay down some fluid jazz conversations between acoustic and electric guitar on Kreisberg Meets Veras. Pristine R&B/Soul vocal styling and unfettered creativity run rampant on chameleonic future-soul explorations with Soil by Serpentwithfeet. The Georgetown Orbits’ Solar Flares is a hearty mix of mostly instrumental ska with dynamic vocal additions. Do you like Neko Case or Camp Cope? Then you’ll love Magic Gone by Petal. Its punchy, upbeat numbers and introspective acoustic work go together like bread and butter. But then again maybe you’re more into Jessica Lea Mayfield, or what about Angel Olsen? Then rock out to moody, driving, shoegaze-inspired meditations on loss with Lauren Lakis’ Ferocious. The Suffers give us a generous dose of retro-styled R&B with modern ideals and some amazing vocal work. Cage The Elephant fans can rock out to Scout by Calpurnia and its teenage rock tipping hat to classic sounds with youthful enthusiasm.
