a tamer joanna newsom? such person does exist





















laura veirs, anyone? i've heard friends compare her to the likes of aforementioned tamer version of miss j newsom, which i can understand. recently, a friend of mine burned me a copy of her latest cd, saltbreakers, and i'm now completely enammered...

laura recently played in dallas, and i've heard her music at starbucks as well. if you dig female vocals from indie artists like feist or even bjork, chances are you'll swoon for laura veirs' new cd.

also, anyone who harbors feelings for a mop is a-ok in my book...

if you're too cheap to take the plunge and pay for the newest album, at least check out a few tracks (namely, "don't lose yourself," "pink light," "cast a hook in me," and "drink deep") -- you won't be disappointed.

both "pink light" and "don't lose yourself" can be found here on her myspace.
