Le Concorde

Song: "People Mover"
Artist: Le Concorde
Album: Universe and Villa

I have some tracks in my iTunes that I don't remember how they got there. I think either I reviewed this album for Bullz-Eye.com a few years ago or just came across this band somewhere else. Either way, this is hip, super-melodic stuff.

Jeffrey Gaines

Song: "To Love Her Inside"
Artist: Jeffrey Gaines
Album: Galore

I had forgotten how awesome Jeffrey Gaines was, but had the chance to see him up close and personal at a house concert a few weeks ago. This guy is such a great songwriter and singer, and well worth checking out on iTunes, etc. I went and purchased a bunch of his songs afterward and his songs bring me back to the late '90's or so when I became a fan. Great stuff.

Sense Field

Song: "Here Right Here"
Artist: Sense Field
Album: Tonight and Forever

There are a ton of bands that come and go and only enjoy cup-of-coffee type success. Sense Field is one of those bands...I remember loving this stuff but that was like 10 years ago. I wonder what the guys are up to these days or if they are even still together. Leave a comment if you know!

Eric Johnson

Song: "Trademark"
Artist: Eric Johnson
Album: Ah Via Musicom

Everyone knows Eric Johnson's "Cliffs of Dover" instrumental, but this tune, also an instrumental track from his landmark Ah Via Musicom album almost 20 years ago, is subtly awesome as well. The dude can flat out shred.

I Am By Your Side

Song: "I Am By Your Side"
Artist: Corey Hart
Album: The Singles

This is a bit of a guilty pleasure, but I've always dug Canadian singer/songwriter Corey Hart's stuff, even beyond "Sunglasses at Night," and including this sappy but melodic track.

The Album Leaf

Song: "Shine"
Artist: The Album Leaf
Album: Into The Blue Again

This band does really mellow, moody, interesting music, but it's more than good background stuff. There is a hipster quality about them too.

Little Favours

Song: "Little Favours"
Artist: KT Tunstall
Album: Drastic Fantastic

KT Tunstall writes catchy melodic alt-pop, and while she came out of nowhere a couple of years ago, it's not like she decided to start making music overnight. Now she's a big star and deservedly so.
