Operator Please- The Coolest Kids I Know

Friday, July 27th, 2007

Rewind to about a year ago when I first met a group of teens from Gold Coast, Australia when they came to NYC to play some industry showcases. They were just a band of high school kids with a lot of Aussie A&R buzz and some catchy songs and great live energy. This band was Operator Please, and they have since blown up in Australia and the UK and are about to take the USA by storm. They are about to embark on a whirlwind tour with the Kaiser Chiefs and after that they head to Europe and then to the US in the fall, where they have already started building an impressive fan base. They have received multiple shout outs from Perez Hilton on his blog (he has announced that they are his favorite band) and their Myspace and YouTube presence is viral to say the least. They are almost done recording their debut album and I am sure it will be just as infectious as their amazing EP’s.

Bat For Lashes- The New Indie Queen

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

Bat For Lashes

Is it just me or has English singer songwriter Natasha Kahn, a.k.a. Bat For Lashes exploded out of nowhere? This imaginative (and slightly odd) visionary of indie folk was barely a blip on the US music radar until this summer. Now she is all the tastemaker community can talk about. If you have not yet heard this beautiful songstress, jump on the bandwagon immediately because she is about to embark on her first big American tour this month. It is only a matter of time before she is selling out huge concert halls so take advantage of her minor obscurity now and attend what are sure to be some very intimate and memorable performances.
