Kate Walsh
It's been a while since I've liked one of the free tracks that iTunes is giving it's UK users, but this week's track - Talk of the Town, by Kate Walsh - is pretty good, if you like female singer-songwriter-guitarist stuff (which by now you may be working out that I do - although not exclusively, James!) Worth downloading and liberating to CD.
Update Apr-9: Well, another new talent you heard here first, folks! She hit the number one spot in the iTunes UK chart this weekend - check out the clipping on her blog. I just hope she'll be performing some place near where I am soon. The more I listen to this, the more hauntingly gorgeous I find it, and the way she just beat the system and cut out all those people-hating music middle-men bodes well for the future of music. More on today's blog.
