Laura Marling

Laura Marling (born 1st February 1990) is an indie folk star in the ascendance whose striking melodies and wise-beyond-her-years vocals could melt even the iciest of hearts, mixing the strength of Regina Spektor with the intelligence of Carole King and the acoustic lushness of Joni Mitchell. The 19-year-old small town girl - Eversley, United Kingdom just outside of Reading to be exact - sings about love, lust and romance, the futility of religion, self-loathing and human psychology. Each one of her songs is a mini-blast of prime poetry, gorgeous melody and sublime songwomanship.

Artisan

There are at least three bands called Artisan. One was an acappella vocal trio, comprising Brian Bedford, Jacey Bedford and Hilary Spencer. They disbanded in 2005. The other performs rich vocal harmony, with intricately-plucked guitars, double bass and spliced drums. Formed in a small mid-Devon village, now based in London, (the second) Artisan have been described as a cross between Simon & Garfunkel, Radiohead and The Coral. They've had recent airplay on both Radio 1 and XFM, and a new made-in-a-cupboard EP is rumoured for eminent release.

Milo Greene

Derek R. Santos is an enigma. There's really no way to describe him other than to say, "Meow."
At a young age, he knew he was destined for greatness, and a life much more eventful than the dull one he was experiencing in Bristol, Rhode Island. Among the countless lawn ornaments, and Portuguese ghetto/goths that inhabited his hometown, he made a name for himself as an indie-folk genious. Derek, who has been known as "Milo Greene", "My Work with Snow", and most currently "Tests", changes his music styles even more often as his name...
