Laura Paragano releases her debut album Strange Curses, and with it introduces us to a dreamy world of indie-tinged surf rock. The last big hitter I can remember making it big world-wide out of California, as a surf band, was The Thrills. Sure, there have been other more recent bands, but none as big. Sometimes these kind of tracks can be cliche-laden, but this is far from … [Read more...] about Review: Laura Paragano – Strange Curses

Elza hits us with her full-length debut Nothing’s wrong, full of 90s influences, interesting ideas and a strong work ethic that’s really paid off.
