one: battlefield

These songs are all absolutely gorgeous.
That’s really how I’m going to describe them.
A lot of piano and such.

Comments: Lily Holbrook’s sweetly provocative voice snags your soul from the first strains of “Welcome To the Slaughter.” Like a more sultry Tori Amos, with a touch of gruff vibrato ala Stevie Nicks, Lily is like a tortured angel trying to keep aloft. Her attempts create music that is stunningly beautiful and often brutally poignant with the lyrical content. The intensity she creates through mostly mellow music is mesmerizing. -Mark Waterbury, Music Morsels

I can’t even begin to describe how beautiful her music is…

Comments: Sheila Nicholls is a rare gem, the kind of songwriter who doesn’t come by very often. She can sing a ballad one moment, happy and relaxed, and vent her anger a few minutes later without second thought.

Artist: Julia (Anne) Album: Flight Ep (2006) Genre: Singer-Songwriter, Piano, Similar Artists: Holly Brook, Fiona Apple, Lily Holbrook, Susie Suh, Jenny Owen Youngs Link to album: divshare.com (RAR | MP3 | 35 MB / 6 Files) Tracklisting: juliaandherpiano.com Sample: juliaandherpiano.com Comments: Julia (anne) is one of those utterly poignant artists that is extremely underrated. She plays with this gorgeous piano, and her vocals range from being slightly Fiona to a little bit indie-emo. I highly recommend checking her out- if you like her, buy her EP which can be found on her site.

A beguiling blend of natural-born songwriting skills, a distinctive vocal gift and a lifetime steeped in music.” Artist: Susie Suh Album: Susie Suh (2005) Genre: Indie, Melancholic, Singer-Songwriter, Folk Similar Artists: Sia, 8mm, Mozella, Fiona Apple Link to album: divshare.com (RAR | MP3 | 54 MB / 10 Files) Tracklisting: amazon.com Sample: myspace.com Comments: Susie Suh is a Korean American adult alternative/folk-rock singer-songwriter. Her music is often compared to Fiona Apple, Sarah McLachlan, and Aimee Mann. Suh cites Joni Mitchell and Beth Gibbons among her influences. Check out “Battlefield.’ Simply amazing. Another extremely talented, underrated artist with the most beautiful music.
