Peggy Sue at the 400 Bar, Minneapolis (6/15/10)
I can't help but think of Buddy Holly when I think of Peggy Sue, but clearly this Brighton-based band doesn't sound anything like Buddy. For one thing, they are supposed to sound like modern indie-folk, particularly with their opening song "The Shape We Made" with the brilliant line: "his pretty eyes will soon grow tired".

Common Prayer – There is a Mountain
“I keep singing in and out of tune...” whines Russo, a quirky, yet gentle refrain set against a humble backdrop of piano and finger picked guitar. An odd lyric for an album opener? Thankfully Common Prayer are odd enough to back it up.
