The Greenhornes


THE GREENHORNES

Personnel: Craig Fox, Jack Lawrence, Patrick Keeler.
Origin: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.

WHY WE'RE EXCITED... When a band finally releases their first studio album in eight years, the cause for excitement is somewhat obvious. '****' is that long awaited album from The Greenhornes - to be released in New Zealand on January 14th - Fox, Lawrence and Keeler, all back together again. Add in sunshine and a drink in hand and I can't think of anything more perfect (for hopefully) a lazy afternoon.

KEY TRACKS: 'It's Not Real', 'Good Times', 'It Returns', 'There Is An End'.
YOU WILL LIKE, IF YOU LIKE... The Raconteurs, The Von Bondies, Soledad Brothers... and vinyl records.
MUST-WATCH: The Greenhornes performing 'Saying Goodbye' live in a record store...


Sia


SIA

Personnel: Sia Kate Isobelle Furler.
Origin: Adelaide, Australia.

WHY WE'RE EXCITED... She's duet-ed with Beck - on 'You're The One That I Want' from 'Grease', nonetheless - she's recorded backing vocals for The Bird And The Bee, and she's pretty kooky-awesome herself.

KEY TRACKS: 'Breathe Me', 'Clap Your Hands', 'You've Changed', 'I'm In Here', 'Sunday'.
YOU WILL LIKE, IF YOU LIKE... Goldfrapp, Imogen Heap, Marina & The Diamonds, Zero 7... and the songwriter behind some of the songs of Christina Aguilera's latest album (for real).
MUST-WATCH: Sia's 'Clap Your Hands' music video...
