Comeback 2012: Melody Gardot with “The Absence”
Jazz chanteuse is back with a new sound and a new look. The Absence is the third record from Grammy-nominated Melody Gardot. Produced by Heitor Pereira, renowned for his work as a film composer and world-class session guitarist (Sting, Seal, Caetano Veloso), the Brazilian-born, US-based artist shared Melody’s enthusiasm for driving off the beaten path of Western pop, jazz, blues and soul. And he was as adventurous as Melody when it came to inventive sonic ideas. From the deserts of Morocco to the streets of Lisboa, from the tango bars of Buenos Aires to the beaches of Brazil, The Absence captures the essence of each of these exotic locales, while at the same time remaining quintessentially Melody Gardot.

Comeback 2012: Missy Higgins with “The Ol’ Razzle Dazzle”
Aussie singer songwriter extraordinaire has come out with a new single “Unashamed Desire” since announcing five years ago her decision to quit music. She also has adopted a new hairstyle with this reinvention and is also touring throughout June/July (including making an appearance at Splendour). This sound is rockier and more upbeat than what we have come to love from Missy Higgins. Let’s hope its packs a punch like her debut.
