I heard about Gavin from my friend MIchael aka mikeypod from mikeypod.com.

This is a 30 minute long performance and I recommend you watch it, but at the very least, watch the first song.

Missy and I got a chance to go to a small, private performnace by Tori Amos this afternoon. There about 70 people there. She played a few songs and did a Q&A. My pictures came out bad because of the light, but the video is better. Plus, you can hear her talk about her forthcoming Christmas CD.

I heard about Tom Howie from his manager Christopher, also known as clcmusic on Twitter. I took one listen to this and fell in love. He sounds like Jeff Buckley with a little Chris Martin thrown in for fun. I just think he’s simply amazing.

You can check out his EP for free on his website tomhowie.com

A former token boy Phil Putnam told me about Kind Monitor and I’m glad he did. This is sweet indie pop at it’s best. There is a lot I could say about Kind Monitor, but you should just check it out for yourself.
