Chris Lake

Well produced dance music. You may have heard his megahit "Somebody."

Sour Widows

Closely intertwining jangly guitars and harmonic voices are the primary features of this well crafted alternative rock. One album out. From San Francisco.

Between the Buried and Me

Virtuosic metal with oodles of tasty little breaks and refreshing 7th and 11th chords sprinkled around. Check out "Things We Tell Ourselves in the Dark" and "Absent Thereafter." Vocals run the gamut from growling to soaring harmonies. Songs are LONG. Sound like they're from Norway but they are North Carolinians!
