Fancy Trash: myspace; Fancy Trash works the line between rock and folk, blending a non-traditional sensibility with the tradition of acoustic instruments to make something unique. Folk-tinged indie rock. Don't let the acoustic instruments fool you, Fancy Trash is a rock band.

Dave Houghton (vocals, guitars), Paul Kochanski (upright bass) and Jason Smith (drums) explore new ways to bring out the folk for the anti-folk in their November release, 'For the Kids'.

The Bridesmaids: official website; myspace; "The Bridesmaids" are a Brooklyn-based pop band, featuring the compositions, and vocal/horn/flute stylings of Leah Paul. Leah has recorded/performed with acts such as TV on the Radio, The Dirty Projectors, and Anthony Braxton. Their first EP, "Here Come the Bridesmaids..." was produced and recorded by Stuart Bogie (of Antibalas, Volney Litmus,) and Eric Biondo (of Antibalas, and Beyondo,) and Leah Paul.

Greene Girl: myspace; Greene Girl features Lauren Smith, who sings twangy, sparse numbers that have a gorgeous nature recalling a harnessed version of the Dresden Dolls." (Time Out New York) Ambient pop meets speakeasy jazz in the quirky melodic songs of duo Greene Girl. Cozily straddling the line between a lullaby and an off-off Broadway musical, each set is a narrative in and of itself. With covers ranging from Leonard Cohen to The Supremes, their earthy sound is as lively as it is warm.
