Anni Rossi - Rockwell

Anni Rossi's debut full-length album "Rockwell" is due out via 4AD March 10th.
I love her EP "Afton" which immerses the listener in beautiful strings that range from quirky plucks to gliding soundscapes. Anni's vocals are pleasingly reminiscent of Regina Spektor's strange noise-acrobatics and her rhythms halt and race with a pop-modernist pace.

I love anything out of the ordinary and am so eager to hear more tracks from the new CD.

Here is a track that was on the EP and has been re-worked a bit to serve as the first single from "Rockwell":
Anni Rossi - Ecology (source: Beggars Group)

Here is another track from the EP that will also be on the new CD (I am assuming in a revised form):
Anni Rossi - Wheelpusher

Anya Maria - Slow & Steady Seduction Phase II

The dozen songs on Slow & Steady Seduction: Phase II are a mixture of Liz Phair sex appeal and Boswell Sisters cabaret with a dash of Jung.
-ROLLING STONE


I have been looking forward to this week's release of Slow & Steady Seduction Phase II from Anya Marina for a few months now.
I love her gritty little-girl/whiny crooner vocals and a few of the tracks are real stand-outs. I am still listening to the album as a whole and am enjoying it a bit more with every listen.
Grey's Anatomy recently featured her catchy new single:

Anya Maria - Move Me (right-click to download or stream via download.com).

I have also included another album track below.
