Mary Karlzen - Dim The Watershed
she seems more like the equal of Sheryl Crow and Nanci Griffith. If you listen closely, in fact, you'll find that Karlzen rocks harder and more infectiously than her better known colleagues
Now based in Milwaukee, Mary Karlzen has just released her latest album, "Dim The Watershed".
A long time South Florida area favorite, Karlzen is extremely proud of the new album, which she self produced with help from Mark Bryan (guitarist for Hootie and The Blowfish) and Fred Freeman.
The album was recently released on South Florida indie; Y&T Music and is now available at CD Baby.
Karlzen's previous album, "Yelling at Mary," was released on Atlantic Records in 1995 and featured guest appearances by Jackson Browne, David Hidalgo (Los Lobos), Benmont Tench (Tom Petty), Kenny Aronoff (Indigo Girls & John Mellancamp) and Kay Hanley (Letters to Cleo).

Nichole Alden
Under The Skin
Haunting music with provocative and incredibly touching lyrics. Her words are honest. Her song structures are simple. The result is beautiful.
Nichole Alden's first effort, Under the Skin is an incredibly touching tableau of lyrics and haunting music that conveys hints of her vastly diverse influences of everything from Ella Fitzgerald to Sebastian Bach to Jeff Buckley.
"I guess it's sort of eclectic acoustic alternative, with some rock and maybe even blues and jazz undertones." Those undertones come from Nichole's first few years of guitar exposure when she began taking classic blues lessons at age 12. She attended sessions at the National Guitar Summer Workshop in Connecticut and later shifted her focus to rock and metal playing under the instruction of legendary UFO guitarist Paul Chapman.

Casey Cyr
Phantom Moon
Quite simply, Casey’s work is breathtaking. Her CD, Phantom Moon, is hypnotic and flowing." -Les Reynolds, Indie-Music.com. "Expect rich and gentle musical poetry from this lovely, multitalented songstress." — CMJ Network
Highlights from the Underground:
Reading Kerouac with David Amram at Steve Earle’s acoustic show at the Knitting Factory. Drinking scotch with the sultry David Lowery at Luna Lounge, talkin about poetry.
At Luna Lounge — where Elliott Smith used to sit by himself and write all his songs in his head, and put down the multitude of parts in his notebook. I used to do that. Sit on my steps at my apartment on Saint Mark’s Place, and write verses in my head, vibing off the atmosphere. Two guys walked by one day and said “you should be doin’ somethin’ girl.”

Dakota Suite
Signal Hill
NME gave Signal Hill an "8 out of 10." Melody Maker praised them with 4 Stars!
"Dakota Suite's singer Chris Hooson is very, very sad indeed, and it sounds magnificent.
Employing cellos, violins and the ever-trustworthy harmonium, Dakota Suite offer their bruised and battered heart to us, with painstakingly gorgeous, lush and brooding rock".
Co-produced by bandmate Richard Formby (Spacemen 3, Sonic Boom).

Trespassers William
Anchor
Ethereal, female-fronted indie. If you like the mellowness of the Sundays and Mazzy Star, the songwriting of Red House Painters and Grant Lee Buffalo, and the atmospheric guitar work of the Cure and Coldplay, you'll most likely enjoy Trespassers Willia
Standing out from the pop and punk that dominate the sunny southern california music scene, trespassers william create their own brand of melancholy and ethereal music more suited for overcast days and quite nights.
The music is rooted in the singer-songwriter tradition with touches of indie, folk, shoegaze and dreampop.
Often compared to mazzy star, red house painters, and coldplay - the band creates lush, dreamy soundscapes to house singer/songwriter anna-lynne williams' lilting vocals and haunting songs.
Formed in 1997, the band has two independent records:"anchor" (1999) and "different stars"(2002).
