Emily Danger - "Paintings "EP

Emily Danger is a band from New York City. The band consists of Emily Nicholas (vocals, piano), Ryan Nearhoff (vocals, guitar), Cameron Orr (violin, bass, melodica, vocals), Colin Lime (drums, vocals), and Coyote Anderson (bass).

"Nicholas’ voice truly serves as an instrument in its own right and, not only does the listener get mesmerized in her singing, they don’t want it to end"

The band has released an EP "Paintings" in April 2012. Unfortunately this EP contains only 4 songs. It's a pitty because all these songs are great and it's very frustrating not to be able to listen to more music from Emily Danger.

At the first listening, I've been quite impressed by Emily Nicholas' voice, in particular in the song "Shed My Skin". Just after hearing a few seconds of this song, my first reaction was "wow ! what a voice !"

The mix of the sound of each instruments and Emily's voice give to the listener a captivating music cocktail whose you will quickly become addicted.

Casey Hurt

Casey Hurt is a singer-songwriter from Hollywood, CA. You might have heard his songs in TV shows. For example, his song "Come To Me" was featured in "One Tree Hill". He won the Alchemist Magazine’s award for best acoustic performer in 2008.

"The Majesty Of Casey Hurt – There is a certain tone to Casey Lee Hurt’s voice. It is a kind of stoic tranquility that draws you in until you find yourself fixed in a state of rapt attention. In the study of vibrational healing, the human voice is regarded as a powerful tool which can be used to raise the vibrations of the energy body to higher and more positive levels. With that in mind it is not far- fetched to think of someone like Hurt possessing such a power in his voice, especially given the nature and intent of the energy he pours generously into his craft. His music is all heart and soul; passionate, radiant, transcendent, and transparent" – Takeema Hoffman: Yoo-N-LA Magazine.

Casey Hurt - "I Don't Need That"
