Daniel Smith hails from Albuquerque, New Mexico and is
a well-kept secret. With a very gentle, sincere voice accompanied by
fingerpicking guitar and eerie organ and piano, he presents songs with
melodies that are both unexpected and lovely. Smith presents himself
in a way reminiscent of M Ward's, Bright Eyes' and Mercury Rev's most
acoustic moments. We're proud to present this masterminds first release
on record ever. danielsmithmusic.com
Bobby Baby aka Ella Blixt is currently making herself more
and more wellknown in Europe with her music, with one foot in electronic
landscapes and the other one in solid organic grounds. This spring Bobby
is releasing her new EP Loves to Dance on UK label Red Letter Records and
we're so happy to get permission to release two of our favourite songs from her
back-catalogue. It's easy to compare her to Nordic colleagues The Knife and Mm,
but you can't close your eyes to her brilliant 60's pop nerve for melodies and
sense for lyrics. Our favourite new Swedish act. bobbybaby.net
Hey! Hope you are doing well. I just wanted to let you know that i'm playing tonight in Malmoe at Bodoni.....and then have a string of dates in Sweden this week. If you are not playing yourself.....it would be great if you came out?!
I have Al Perkins with me, and a band from LA called Shurman.
Anyway, i hope to meet you somewhere in Sweden this week!! Kevin
Happy New Year! I wanted to let you know that i'm playing shows in Sweden next week. The tour dates are on my myspace. I hope to get to meet you!?
Happy Trails,
