Bethany Weimers-Harpsichord Row
I was born to like this album. It’s Weimers’s debut, so there are a few rough spots, but it sounds great. One of very, very few albums recorded in a bedroom that you couldn’t have guessed was recorded in a bedroom (I don’t know how the myth that it’s easy to make a few K sound like an M got started…), this is a brilliant showcase of an artist I hope to hear more from.
I suppose I could tell you that she sounds like a folksy-Regina Spektor and that her musicianship is top notch (she played everything but electric guitar on the album, including singing the perfectly executed vocal harmonies, which never go out of style) but I trust you’ll save me the trouble by previewing the album below (four tracks the whole album is available!) and then pre-ordering (use this link-iTunes takes a far bigger cut). The album is out May 7.
