Music You Should Check Out!

I was out at a friend's birthday dinner / drinks last night and was treated to much more. We arrived at De Santos around 10:00, just before my friend Holly and her partner Júlía Hermannsdóttir in the duo Feather and Folly began to play. Their set was beautiful. A wonderful blend of quirky lady rock, lyrically similar to Au Revoir Simone, and folk rock with a little Bob Dylan. There is something in the sincerity of the lyrics of young women that is lacking in the lyrics of most young men. Feather and Folly's lyrics are blunt and simple, yet far reaching without pretense or bravado, very vulnerable. You can feel the power of owning that vulnerabilty though. Their appeal is also in their simplicity of means, doing one song with no instruments at all, just the harmonies of their voices.

Check them out on Myspace here. Or if you have a chance to see them live, GO!

If there ever was such a woman

I hate to brag, but I definitely rode the L train into the city this morning with Miss Abbey Lee Kershaw. In honor of such an occasion, it is only fitting that she be our model of the week. Check out these photos from her amazing shoot with Greg Kadel for MUSE.
