Forever
Goldrush "Halo In My Backpack" CD HED-090 Roughhewn and impassioned, Forever Goldrush moves along an indefinable path through hardscrabble rock n' roll, into essences of country, folk and blues. Drawing from tradition, they defy convention, emitting a rare maturity and refined sense of poetry embellished through a smattering of rowdy rock, melancholy twang and indelible melodies. | |||||

Lou
Ford "Alan Freed's Radio" CD HED-093 If "music writing" is indeed an another name for "collected analogies", Lou Ford is the Gram Parsons on Lou Reed's stereo, and the Procol Harum that John Lennon might crank in his kaleidoscope Rolls Royce were he alive today. Alan Freed's Radio echoes with the band's straightforward Workingman's Pop, bouncing between loading docks, smoky bars and front porches, as well as the band's workstation itself-the stage. | |||||

The
Firebird Band "Setting Sun and its Satellites " LP/CD HED-094 first pressing of LP on Fire Red Vinyl Beginning as a side project, the Firebird Band has now developed into a fully functional act featuring Chris Broach of Braid and Andy Howthorne of Pilots in Hiatus. With credentials such as these, it's no surprise that the Firebird Band excels in creating subtle melodies out of kinetic, awkward time schemes and emotive vocals. -Jersey Beat | |||||

Dolan "Long Way From Home" CD EAR-026 Mary's got a great voice-deep and impassioned, with shades of Melissa Etherige and Ani DiFranco. -Tail Spins

 |
Speedbuggy USA "Cowboys & Aliens" CD HED-088 So Cal's Speedbuggy USA might just represent the next evolution in punk rock. Their stellar sound, which mixes high energy punk with rockabilly with classic country (think George Jones and Johnny Cash), is too unique to be categorized, yet too good to be ignored. | |||||

The Verna Cannon "Movie Star Faces" CD HED-085 "If you prefer music that seduces rather than pummels, seek out The Verna Cannon. This excellent Columbia quartet spins hypnotic gems brimming with gorgeous subtleties and fertile imagery. Tunes move with tailored grace, from low-key moody numbers nudged by acoustic guitars and violin to more upbeat rock." | |||||
