Introducing the Music of

Margaret Glaspy

Margaret Glaspy’s first album is a fabulous miniature, clocking in at just 34 minutes, that gets better every time you listen to it. It’s clearly a singer-songwriter record in that it’s the thoughts of one person, no matter how personal..... there’s plenty of space between the drums, bass, guitars and Glaspy’s voice, which is sometimes resigned, sometimes yearning.

Introducing Kate Davis

The music of multi-instrumentalist and singer Kate Davis has been lauded by MTV as one of 2014’s “15 Fresh Females Who Will Rule Pop,”  She's been turning heads in New York’s music scene since 2012. Whether she’s crooning rootsy ballads or plucking bright riffs from her bass, the gutsy songstress from Portland, Oregon, puts a fresh spin on the standards and brings a canonical sensibility to her own lush tracks.

If you put a mid-career Jenny Lewis album in a room with Regina Spektor’s coloring, Joanna Newsom’s lyric poetry, and a dose of Tina Fey’s sharp wit—then added a couple decades of rigorous musical education—Kate Davis might come strolling out.

This week's feature is:

Anderson East

Anderson East, a Nashvillian by way of Alabama, who can sing the blues with a sultry, countrified growl, is no exception to the rule. Evoking a twangier Ray LaMontagne or Amos Lee with notes of plaintive Ryan Adams, he's forming a sound all his own.  --- Rolling Stone

"A fresh voice on the New York music scene, with a collection of well crafted songs and universal appeal" -- John Platt at 90.7 FM, NYC

The Music of Mandolin Orange

“Mandolin Orange is the deceptively straightforward duo of Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz,[they] land in the same general sonic ballpark as Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. Warm and inviting, Marlin and Frantz’s harmonies are as soft and familiar as an old comforter.” ---- Rolling Stone
