Brand New, Suzanne Vega December 1, 2007

They are what they are. Fans of Brand New appreciate the blunt, no-nonsense approach the group takes to its music. The Long Island quartet's second album is titled 'Deja Entendu,' French for "already heard." Combining hardcore with pop-punk elements, Thrice creates a sound that goes beyond genres. Mewithoutyou is a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-based post-hardcore/indie rock band.

Best known for the 1987 hit, 'Luka,' Suzanne Vega is well versed in the ability to walk the fine musical lines between, folk, rock 'n' roll, pop and experimentation while maintaining a unique and successful body of work. Vega's most recent effort, 'Songs of Red and Grey' was released in 2001, with a best-of 'Retrospective' issued in 2003.
