Netsayi: album release & tour
Libertylondongirl (Free subscription) | 11/16/2009
I first heard of Netsayi in summer 2006 when I was invited to a tiny private acoustic gig in the basement of a restaurant in London to launch her first album. She held the room spellbound with just her voice stripped back and bare, with an emotion ringing through her words which you rarely hear.

The Hammond Song by The Roches
A Conservative Lesbian (Free subscription) | 11/12/2009
The popular music performers that Margaret and I loved to go see in concert were Joan Armatrading, Betty (the group) and The Roches.

CD Review: Sliimy, “Paint Your Face”
Popdose (Free subscription) | 10/25/2009
... lyrical streak, and gift for sweet pop melodies, Sliimy is almost a cross between Mika and a young Joan Armatrading. It pains me to say it, but at least in this case, Hilton might not be totally worthless; even if he didn’t quite “discover” Sliimy — he was a MySpace phenom before Perez came calling — this is far from the sort of obnoxious musical nightmare you’d expect from a Hilton-approved...
