Hurricane

There aren't many bands that can take my breath away, but this tops the list. Ms Mr, a duo from New York, sound as if Florence and Adele had a love-child. Known only by Ms and Mr, their enigma is not limited only to their music. Unless you dig around, it is unlikely that you will find a name or a face to this band.

Words cannot do this group any justice. Listen here for their first official single, Hurricane


And check out their BandCamp page for some unofficially released songs. It's worth it.

Telephoned

Like many other cover artists, Telephoned gives old songs a new spin, but no one does it like this. DJ Sammy Bananas and singer Maggie Horn blend their talents to produce a postmodern take on remixes and covers.

Noosa

Watch out Lana Del Rey because you have some hometown competition. From New York, two-piece band, Noosa specializes in a very similar 'dream' pop. There isn't much else to say other than to check out her music.
