Emily Rodgers - Hurricane
Simple yet so exotically delivered, ‘Hurricane’ is the promo from Emily Rodgers' debut album ‘Bright Day’ (she also has an album with her full band Her Majestic Stars) which is due out in early October on Misra Records. There is certainly an ethereal quality to the tune, a brooding intensity that reminds me of the Glee Club, Beth Orton or one of a plethora of female vocalists from 4AD’s early 90’s roster. Rodgers is based in Pittsburgh; a city we’re slowly beginning to realise has a bubbling network of wonderful artists emerging. ‘Hurricane’ is one of over half a dozen tracks available on the excellent Absolutely Kosher/Misra free sampler ‘Soon’.

Wow The Glee Club now that takes me back. I had their album and loved it. But so did my gf at the time and she kept the CD! Don't suppose you got some Glee Club?
