		<description><![CDATA[If you look hard enough, any year can turn out to be a great one for music. Long gone are the days when commercial radio called the shots, when proximity to a killer record store or access to a suitable tastemaker could serve as an excuse for embracing mediocrity. Spotify is finally stateside. Record stores hardly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About ten seconds into &#8216;Nothing is Wrong&#8217; you figure out that Dawes is either the next big thing, or perhaps it already is. The band is more polished than Wilco was at the beginning, and with a real knack and ambition to write legitimate pop songs – a lot like mid-career Ryan Adams. Not only [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Almost four years ago, even before their first EP “Sun Giant” was released, I stood before  five bearded hippies at the Bowery Ballroom, transfixed by their lush nostalgic confidence as they buzzlessly opened for Blitzen Trapper. Nothing they have done since that night has been anything less than perfect. Their CSN harmonies, Van Morrison &#8216;Astral&#8217; meditations and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Neko Case is a true force of nature. Her voice is among the most confident and controlled in music today. It has been for the past decade as she has continually honed her craft somewhere between country and pop, both as a solo artist and the occasional “soul” behind the super group the New Pornographers.

		<description><![CDATA[I love the Scandinavian folkies: Kings of Convenience, Sondra Lerche, Jose Gonzalez and Nicoli Dunger. But Loney, Dear’s latest effort transcends the genre and morphs into something quite different and special. Think The Postal Service, but stronger, much more urgent and less shallow-synth sounding. If the older Loney records were sparer, more acoustic seeming, “Dear [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Man, the older I get the more I tend to fall for really great folkies. I blame my early fascination with Donovan and Nick Drake for that, but they also helped me understand what a great folk record should be about.
