the lightsleeper

indie electro pop from austria electronic beats collide with chamber music as well as fat
basslines and electronic effects meet soulful, occasionally
megalomaniacal piano playing or indie guitars; the whole thing
rounded off by a catchy singing voice transporting less catchy
lyrics.
the lightsleeper takes the best of iamx, get well soon, beirut as
well as coldplay and the worst of radiohead and muse and distills
it to a intoxicating and mind expanding mixture.

Michael Landau

Michael Landau is a jazz/blues/rock/fusion guitarist based out of Los Angeles. His unique style features an ability to master incredibly difficult technique while demonstrating a wealth of harmonic and tonal ingenuity. His songwriting ability is astounding and underrated, as such masterful compositions such as "Johnny Swing" and "Me/Five Storks" show that Landau is not just a soloist and guru, but a true genius of blues/rock compositions.

Corey Harris

Corey Harris (born February 21, 1969, Denver, Colorado) is a guitarist based in New Orleans on the Alligator label. He spent some time in western Africa studying, and rhythms from this area are very prevalent in his music, most conspicuously in "Mississippi to Mali." He performs a wide variety of music, from poppy selections (Santoro, eg) to raw, traditional guitar and piano blues (Honeysuckle, eg). He is one of the few contemporary blues artists that is able to avoid being either a staunch traditionalist or totally separated from its roots.
