SARA BAREILLES

‘Kaleidoscope Heart’ (Epic) Bareilles blossoms on her sophomore effort, a delightful showcase for her ambitious singer/songwriter pop. More upbeat...

ROBYN

“Body Talk Pt. 2” (Konichiwa/Cherrytree/Interscope) Swedish electro-pop diva Robyn deserves to be 2010’s breakout star. “Body Talk Pt. 1,” released in...

ISOBEL CAMPBELL AND MARK LANEGAN

The unlikely pairing of nightingale Campbell (ex-Belle & Sebastian warbler) and old crow Lanegan (Screaming Trees) is now three albums strong. Lanegan’s...

HEART

This classic Seattle band is the all-time best female-fronted outfit - at least the best that doesn’t have Joan Jett or Deborah Harry in its lineup. Ann...

KEM

All hail the return of an r & b singer/songwriter with class. The third album from Kem is aptly-titled, existing in warm, smooth, jazz-infused tones and dealing...

PHILIP SELWAY

This is the coolest solo debut from a drummer in a marquee band ever (and we’re not forgetting Ringo’s “Sentimental Journey”). Smartly,...

ESPERANZA SPALDING

Spalding’s position as the sweetheart of the jazz world is due to the combination of her youth, striking looks and - most importantly - genuine talent....

IRON MAIDEN

If you ignore the occasional bloated opus, Maiden’s latest delivers a small blitzkrieg of riffage, yowls and classic British heavy metal. The lyrics are...

ROY ORBISON

I saw Orbison’s next-to-last concert. It was in Boston in 1988 at the long-defunct Channel. It was sublime and brought shivers to the spine. He’d...

DAN MANGAN

This gem of a pop album came out in Canada last year, earning the Vancouver-based singer/songwriter praise and awards. Now, as his first American headlining...
