Kiirstin Marilyn: There Are No Cats in America
New York based Kiirstin Marilyn's new album, released in October, is an album like no other I've heard this year. There are No Cats in America is a thirteen track look at the human race, our relationships with each other, with animals and with society in general, and...
Giulia Millanta: Tomorrow is a Bird
Italian singer songwriter Giulia Millanta has been based in Austin, Texas, for some time now and it seems to agree with her; she has just released her seventh album, Tomorrow is a Bird. A born storyteller, Giulia's lyrics weave their way through ten Americana / rock...
