M. Craft - Silver and Fire (Silver and Fire [2006])

Oh man how do I describe this guy. He's like so many other solo male artist out there right now. Easy jazzy pop with a lot of mellow singing and mellow beats. It's a good album but right now this song is so overpopulated. I do like this song though. If you like Crosby, Stills and Nash you will probably like this song, and may like this album.
Palomar - Static (Palomar II [2002])

It's as if someone took the Marine Girls and put a band behind them, then sped everything up. This song definitely has that feel to it, as does the album. But I like the Marine Girls and so I like this song. Over the entire album it feels a bit tired and boring to be quite honest.
The Weepies - Antarctica (Hideaway [2008])

This duo has a nice soothing pop-folk sound. They aren't breaking any new ground but their songs are consistently pretty to listen to. This is probably my favorite new album of 2008 up to this point.
Findlay Brown - Losing the Will to Survive (Losing the Will to Survive [2006])

The past continues to be reborn with Findlay Brown. Yet another solo male artist with a cool folksy sound. More Crosby, Stills, and Nash influence. Who knew they would be so influential 40 years after they started.
