A slow week for releases here in the Great White North (snowed here today).
The first band we will take a look at is “Hey Rosetta!“, who released an EP today titled “Sing Sing Sessions”. This is a set from this group of very talented musicians from Newfoundland. Just a bunch of Canadians doing what they like to do, play. The EP is a selection of the bands past songs done acoustically. I think you will agree, good stuff.
Welcome

The second artist (and final) for the week is Toronto singer/song-writer Emma-Lee. This is her 2nd album release and is titled “Unsung Heroine”. Listening to the featured song, I am taken by the strength in the structure of the song. She has a great voice, and, if she keeps writing material as strong as this, she could easily become a force on the Canadian music scene.

My International pick of the week is Paul McCartney and his new album “Kisses On The Bottom”. It is Valentines Day so enjoy Sir Paul’s song from the album “My Valentine”.
My Valentine

Liked the first one.
Emmas voice reminded me a lot of Grace Potter…
Lori and I were thinking KT Tunstall. I think I like the first one better after listening on my iPod today. Damn, 2 more songs. That is how I’m saving money now, just buying a song instead of the album. We’ll see how that works out hahaha
Good luck. iTunes is waaaay to easy.
Interesting. I’ll have to relisten. I didn’t hear KT. Though now that you mention it, I imagine I’ll hear it…
I imagine I’ll hear Grace now to.
