Katie Costello - Lamplight (2011)

Download

Katie Costello is physiologically young, mentally ancient, and prides herself in having a keen eye for kitsch. When not “song-doodling,” as she has been known to call it, Katie can be found sulking in public libraries, skimming through critically acclaimed tween drama-comedy novels, and/or collecting cute rocks with fun personalities from her hometown Hermosa Beach, or some other rock-abundant natural setting. Katie is recognized by a unique lyrical approach to her vintage-esque original tunes. (According to her bio)

Over the last two years Katie Noonan (is an Australian based singer-songwriter) and her new band ‘The Captains’ ( Cameron Deyell – guitar, Stu Hunter – keys/bass, Declan Kelly – drums) have been building a vessel of exciting new songs.

A return to form for Katie, this band sees the songstress sailing towards a more beloved lush and organic sound with her trademark strong and inspired personal stories.

Katie has co-written songs with a host of Anzac luminaries including Tim Finn, Don Walker, Sia Furler, Josh Pyke, Tom Shapcott and her fellow ‘Captains’ band mates.

Katie and the band have been berthing a series of underground warehouse gigs around Sydney to test the waters and warm up the tunes live. Stay tuned to Katie’s myspace and facebook for regular updates/new demoes/gig footage etc and for a glimpse of what promises to be an inspired voyage.

“ I haven’t felt this positive about my music since the george days… I feel like I have finally found the right musical partners to make my music with again. I am really inspired and excited about this new record – I can’t wait to make it and tour it.”



Whatever it is, for those of you who have enjoyed the Queensland singer in various, sometimes confusing, guises throughout the years, this is not Katie Noonan the funky soul singer or Katie Noonan the kinda jazz singer or indeed Katie Noonan the halfway-to-an-opera-singer singer.

Justly celebrated as the owner of one of the best voices in the country, albeit one she's never convincingly put to full use, Noonan returns in some ways to where we first encountered her in George, the band she led with her brother, Tyrone. Well, in so far as several songs begin from pop-rock roots and a forceful backbeat and then pile on strings or electronics or vaulting vocalising (and sometimes all three) as they take left turns.

Emperor’s Box is a record tailored perfectly to Noonan’s paper smooth and breath-taking voice, not to mention her subtle melodies and dreamy lyrics. Whilst Noonan’s background is heavily rooted in jazz, she displays an exceptional knack for writing dark pop melodies, which emphasise just how haunting her voice really is.

Kaki King  iTunes



Kaki King, one time girlfriend of Sara Quin (of Tegan and Sara), guitar genius, singer songwriter, hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, USA is releasing her 8th album of her ten year career!

The first thing you notice about King's latest album is the variety, with everything from upbeat dance to soothing instrumentals perfectly balanced throughout. With an ambient vocal style that isn't always perfect she reminds me of the mid-nineties indie scene, most notably Sleeper and Catatonia, whose female vocalist would front their performances with a unique sound to divide them from the other bands around. The lo-fi recording style often lends an air of delicacy, even to the heavier and more upbeat tracks on the album, which won't be to everyone's taste, but it would be an injustice to not mention the talent and creativity that shines through every track. Kaki King isn't the kind of artist you put on in the background, or someone you would watch live to bounce around to, and Junior is an album that demands your full attention while rewarding you with fantastic alternative rock. Stand out moments include Spit It Back In My Mouth and Communist Friends. ]
