What's Good - April '07 (with Videos!)

Post a Comment

Finally I get to sit down and listen to some music - it's time again for my favorite FWYB post - "What's Good"!

At the beginning of each month I sort through all the CDs & emails that get sent to me (and yes, I listen to everything) and put together this list of some new sounds from artists from all over that we haven't featured yet on the site but we think are worth checking out. Thanks for all of the CDs & recommendations I received this month everyone. Of course I can't post everything at once, but here's a bunch I though you all might enjoy (below in no particular order).

Post a note in the comments section or send an email if you have any recommendations for next month.
