Daniel James: Comfortable Cage

Valerie
Inspired by indie favorites Bon Iver, Racounters, The Shins, Sufjan Stevens and Kings of Leon, among others; it's easy to make Daniel James your new favorite if you like the music of the artists mentioned. Comfortable Cage flits between blueesy rock one moment and then moody folk rock to the next, entertaining the audience all the way through. The album itself is a couple of years old and was recorded at "ma and pa's house before they destroyed my studio and built a bigger kitchen... " according to the artist.

Trotting Bear: Morning

Valerie
Trotting Bear's music should be synonymous to relaxing acoustic folk. The sound emanating from the beautiful guitars is enough to make you want to listen and just leave it playing for a good long while. The man behind the sound is Andy Berkhout, a singer songwriter who has had several albums and records released under his name. Trotting Bear is one of his side projects and serves as a short extension of his usual folk/Americana, lofi sound.

Mansion Closets: You Always Do This

Monica
When Damien Verret and Julian Lyndell collaborate in a musical project, expect nothing less. Mansion Closets' debut album entitled You Always Do This is a cosmic universe of pure unbridled bliss. Released last September 19, 2010, this nine-track set is the product of many late nights and home recording sessions. The album's catalog of music has been flawless so far, kicking off with I Hope You Like Spider Pellets, a charming yet playful song that showcases Lyndell's very sweet vocals. Her voice plays along the likes of Tracyanne Campell (of Camera Obscura ) and Regina Spektor.
