Mazzy Star meets Holly GoLightly, Raincoats. Female singer/songwriter from Melbourne, voice very reminiscent of Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star), music melds twangy atmospherics of Mazzy with garage bluesy sentiments of all things Headcoats, Raincoats, jangle psyche of early Rolling Stones and psyche roots rock of the best of Creedence even. Voice gets scratchy a la Kim Deal at times, but not cloyingly so, with loads of self-harmonies. Play with Anna Calvi, Eliza Randazzo, Mazzy Star, Bongwater (Ann Magnuson).

1) (5:52) slow /mid swing, very Mazzy
2) (3:37) midpaced pop jangle psyche flavor
3) (5:14) cool trippy psyche w/ swirling panned noise guit and phase shifter, good beat
4) (3:30) upbeat near rockin, free association type lyrics
5) (2:55) upbeat garage swing, old Stones flavor
6) (5:52) quiet guitar, builds slightly, but chill
7) (3:39) simple jangle pop “I masturbated to the songs you wrote” – channeling the spirit of Cobain, bordering on lewd but really great
8) (7:44) swingy bluesy tone, “I don’t need no 9-5”
9) (3:54) garagey stones/credence roots vibrato
10) (4:34) cool Chrome Cranks twang, surf garage simplicity, cool noise guit leads
11) (7:09) walzing somber vibrato ballad
12) (2:47) simle voice + guitar pop ballad
