British India – ‘I Said I’m Sorry’

Listen to

I’ve never got British India. Are they a hard rock band, or an indie band? Their popularity seems to have exploded, despite the fact they’ve never released anything that’s actually worthy of such grand acclaim. I guess there’s something to say for a catchy chorus. ‘I Said I’m Sorry’ is OK, but there’s nothing all that exciting about this song. Sure, they’re aping the Clash in the chorus, but aside from that the song is just one big plateau.

Megan Washington – ‘Clementine’

Listen to

So following from yesterday, Megan Washington is a Melbourne based Jazz-ish singer songwriter who has done backup vocals for Old Man River. A friend tipped me off about her months ago but I didn’t bother checking her out until I actually met her in a restaurant in Collingwood, she’s a real animated gal. Out of her songs on myspace Clementine stands out the most, and it does show just how promising of a vocalist Megan is. She’s in New York for the next two months doing shows and such so check her out if you’re around.
