Fresh Cuts


Was getting to wondering about a few musicians that we haven't heard from in quite a while and found that the subjects of my music musings are indeed releasing new works.

Van Hunt:
One of my personal favs. On May 8th VH will be releasing: Use In Case of Emergency - a few rare items from the vault ' a salve for these desperate times.' .only on www.vanhunt.com.

RiceBoySleeps:
By Sigur Ros frontman, Jon Birgisson along with collaboration partner Alex Somers. Due out July 20th.

Pete Yorn:
Fellow Jersey native and a most gifted singer/songwriter Yorn is at long last releasing a new record (June 23rd) entitled "Back and Forth"- first single "Don't Wanna Cry" - we still haven't gotten over Strange Condition. You can also catch Yorn performing on the Coldplay tour.

The MAGNIFICENT, Leonard Cohen, has released a live record "Live in London" from his current tour. Reaching its completion now- was amazing live performance, if you caught it. Genius. The record can give you comfort after you come down ........ we just love this man.
