Songs of the Day :: Natalia Zuckerman “Favorite Shirt”…”The Right Time”…”Brand New Frame”

Posted by jayfo13 on August 8, 2008

Natalia Zuckerman opened for my favorite artist, Ani DiFranco, earlier this year.  I’m usually not too impressed by opening acts, but she’s great and much in the same vein as Ani.  Her cd, Brand New Frame, is available now from Weasel Records.

Brandi Shearer is very, very good.

Posted by jayfo13 on August 6, 2008

Brandi Shearer is an incredible talent and I expect huge things from her down the line.  One listen to her amazing voice and you’ll understand why.  Enjoy her take on a Gram Parson’s classic “Hickory Wind” and “Heaven”.

Do yourself a big favor and click this link to watch her Live performance at the Roxy singing “I’ve Had Enough”

And one more…
