I Miss KT Tunstall

Tracing influences from Pete Doherty and Red Hot Chili Peppers and blaming Ewan McGregor(!) and Jake Gyllenhaal, Amy Macdonald, a pasty Scottish songstress enamored my euphony obsessions. If you may want to know, I was stuck on KT Tunstall' songs for a long time. Besides being Scottish, Amy also brings forth skillful folk-rock songs with substantive lyrics blended with powerful vocals. Check her out, 'This is the Life' will give you 3 minutes of exquisite thumping moments.+/-

Amy Macdonald

Inspired, adolescent Amy picked up one of the guitars her dad had lying round the house. He never played them; he'd never been in a band and had only 'mucked about' on the instrument with his pals when he was younger. And Amy just taught herself how to play the thing. There were no genetic influences, nor even lessons. Just a good ear and few chord patterns found on the internet. And a huge, burning, raging desire to write and play songs.
And you're singing the songs
Thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
This is the Life
Poison Prince
Mr Rock and Roll

After a listen, first thing you've probably notice about Gin Wigmore is her grating voice oscillating inside your eardrums. With a style that reminiscence me of Ida Maria and Duffy, Gin Wigmore is little by little becoming my next guilty pleasure. This is the kind of songs you listen everytime you plan on being oblivious to the surroundings while attempting to take on a cool hermit poise. LOL. Check her out. +/- Gin Wigmore Gin Wigmore is a distinctive singer/songwriter, whose sound is driven by a startling voice; her delivery succinctly described by a critic as ‘whiskey and dry’ and whose self-penned songs provide a refreshing new take on life as a ’20-something’ and yet relate across the generations.

I picked yesterday The Script debut album which was made available this 8th of November. The Script, an Irish trio band describes their sound as a whole new brand of Celtic Soul, blending hip hop lyrical flow with pop melodiousness, state-of-the-art R'n'B production with anthemic rock dynamics, classic song construction with gritty contemporary narratives. +/- The Script It's got all the emotion and passion you would expect from across the Irish sea, but it is glittering in its modernity, universal in its singalong addictiveness and global in its syncopation, music for the feet, heart and head. Think U2 versus Timbaland, Van Morrison remixed by Teddy Riley. Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me, And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be, Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet, And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.
