After leaving Camera Obscura, the founder of the great band David Skirving, began a new band called "California Snow Story" a Scottish indie band. Then, he was joined by Sandra Martínez (a vocalist from Superété) after a short break by David, then began recording again, and still made very good music (Also was then joined by Madoka Fukushima on the keyboard and Alan Skirving on the drums) A release from Shelflife label and Letterbox Records, this band and will soon got to the tops of the "indie" world!

This Hi-Fi pop group is a lovely band, Ali Howard's sweet voice is the ice cream and the instruments are the toppings! "The Great Unwanted" is a wonderful album, this band has found a way into my heart, because the tunes are so, so catchy! My personal favorite song is "Get Outta Town" the song has great music, and the vocals are really popish if you can say ;) my brother(check his semi-music blog) has his favorite too, " Ain't Never Been Cool" and I understand that because it IS and awesome song! Yet, every song is an awesome song! "The Great Unwanted" is there debut album, and its left me dancing to every song! I hope they come to SF, how wonderful it would be to see them!
I hope to see many, many, many more albums!

Three great voices, three polka dot dresses, and three very pretty gals. You probably know who they are by those three things (Other than the picture above) if you didn't please give them a listen, I'm sure you'll be left in amazement! Rose(Rosay), Gwenno, and Becki(Riotbecki) are The Pipettes, girls from Brighton. Their debut album "We Are The Pipettes" is out and it's very lovely! They are currently on tour (Sadly I missed their show at the Rickshaw Stop) for the album, and i hope to see them if the come by SF ever again! My cousins Dale and Ryan where able to make it and they said that it was one of the the top 10 shows they have ever seen! And they have seen many many shows! it just comes to show the these girls are just amazing! How do they do it? Being very pretty and making and playing great songs isn't an easy thing to do! And don't forget The Cassettes the band who plays the music behind them! check them out Pipettes Myspace

Rose Melberg

Rose Melberg has the sweetest voice, Cast Away The Clouds is so great!!! Rose has rescued me. Her music brings a smile to my face, even if her lyrics are full of sorrow, her voice is full of joy. My current favorite songs of her album are "Cold Sea" and "Take Some Time" If you haven't heard her solo before, you need to! wonderful, wonderful. She was great in all her other bands (Tiger Trap, The Softies, and Go Sailor) and she is still great.
