Before Delilah came Regina apparently...

Regina Spektor is one talented lady, let's not deny!! I once saw her at a festival where she sang, played piano and banged a stool with a drumstick simultaniously... Two words: MAD SKILLS!
She has also been featured on many soundtracks including 500 days of summer ('Us' and 'Hero'), In Bruges ('That Time'), My sister's keeper ('Better') and ,accolade of all accolades, she sang the intro theme to 'Weeds'....

But most beautiful of all has to be the hauntic ballad of Biblic hair dressing, 'Samson'...



Funnily enough the Bible didn't mention me once either Regina....
Oh, she also speaks Russian. I say once more... MAD SKILLS!!!

They're from Oxford don't you know....

Coming out of the grey muginess of winter is proving hard this year.... Just when we all thought the cold was over and Spring may have sprung, a new wave of chilly comes round the corner and slaps us in the face!
Luckily i think i may have found a cure to all this bleakness in the musical stylings of Oxford folktastic band Stornoway... With their harmonious encouragement to 'fluel up and drive on, fuel up and drive on' it has been possible to actually get out of bed each day!!!



Am also loving the nostalgic picture they paint of youth and getting older,
'You may feel like the passenger but now you're the driver...'
wise words....wise words....

Swoon for the Woon...

So a friend of mine put me on to Mr. Woon after seeing him in concert and I think I am a little light headed from his silky smooth voice and intense into camera starings!!! Is it just me or does he look a little like Joseph Gordon-Levitt? I have a feeling Jamie Woon is gonna be big in the near future with his soulful dance music but as always I am a huge sucker for an acoustic guitar and a sunset...

and I am also with you Jamie....
