For her new album, Sophie Ellis-Bextor has decided to ditch the straight-forward (and awesome) pop that she's known for in exchange for a more singer-songwritery approach. It's ok...I guess...she's happy with it, so that's what matters! HA!

After taking some much needed blog-vacation, I'm back for 2014!! Let's start with some Indie Pop!
Lacrosse had a few lovely songs on their 2009 album "Bandages for the Heart". This January they are releasing their next album "Are You Thinking of Me Every Minute of Every Day".
Here's the first video from the new album and I quite love its twinkly synths!
