Matthew Perryman Jones: Artist of the Year
Earlier this year I was discovering a lot of great new music in my In-die Box posts. Although I discovered some great artists and songs, by far the best is Matthew Perryman Jones. His melodies are sweet and his lyrics are soulful. He’s an incredibly talented musician and I see him becoming big in the next couple of years. Sadly we missed him coming to town with Ingrid Michaelson earlier this year – it would have been an incredible concert! You’ll see below that he’s as good live as he is on his albums. Here are the two albums I’ve purchased and my favorite tracks.

My In(die)-Box II
Since my original ‘My In(die)-Box’ post I have found some great new music that I would like to share:
Camera Obscura – Lloyd, I’m Ready to Be Heartbroken
Camera Obscura – Tears For Affairs
Camera Obscura is my favorite new band. Their sound is both retro and fresh. I also suggest going to their myspace page to listen to other tracks. The single “Tears for Affairs” is one of my favorite tracks. Definitely an album I will buy, and I’m looking forward to listening to their older stuff.
My In(die)-Box
I love my music, and I like to think that my music loves me a little too. I remember as a child finding a cassette tape and recording my favorite song off the radio (piracy started young in my family) to be played back over and over and over again… I’ve gone through a whole lotta genres, from Oldies, Country, 80s, Hard Rock, Chill Rock, New Age, Classical, Religious, bla bla bla bla bla.
