Continuing on with my 2009 in review, a couple of albums I really loved, neither of which was actually released in 2008.
A Good Day, Priscilla Ahn
Priscilla has an amazing voice, and I listened to this album countless times. Call it chick music, I don’t care, I love it. “Red Cape,” “Dream,” and “I Don’t Think So” are all wonderful tracks from her. Make sure to check out her blogotheque session too.
Re-Arrange Us, Mates of State
I was not a fan of their 2003 album Team Boo, and so I sort of wrote them off for a while. I came across Re-Arrange Us on Amazon and listened to a few tracks though and instantly loved their new sound. This album is infinitely fun.
