week of december 22
First, go to www.jonsi.com and download the new single from the Sigur Ros frontman’s upcoming solo project. Awesome.
Ok, now on to some of this week’s releases.
One eskimO
This is a great buy on iTunes for $5.99. Not only do you get a full length but also 3 animated films as well. A great acoustic/alt album that deserves the attention it is starting to garner. This London-based quartet has truly outdone themselves.
Window View
Two singer/songwriters from Seattle have crafted a simple yet well-developed album. There isn’t anything radical or vastly original, but the songwriting and music succeed at not trying to cover new ground. At times it is soft acoustic pop/rock, and at others has a bit of swing that makes you tap your heels on the floor.

Brady Harris - Acoustic Rewind
Great Lake Swimmers - Song Sung Blue (original music to the Documentary Film)
