Nedelle is someone you might not know too much about. If smooth melodies, bossa nova-influenced chord structures and gorgeous layers of vocal harmony aren't what you expect from the Kill Rock Stars label, 'From the Lion's Mouth', the second solo effort from Nedelle and her first for KRS, may take you by surprise.
Opening with a simple, plucked guitar line and delicately placed strings, the understated, seductively sunny sound is like crayons coloring the lines of a perfectly drawn coloring book. But it is her voice that you connect with immediately; Nedelle's singing has the intimate quality of Dusty Springfield or Karen Carpenter.
"I'm not full-fledged indie rock," Nedelle admits. "I often ask myself what I'm doing in this world when I'm not indie rock, but I don't want to be commercial. I'd love to carve out a niche for myself."
Main support - The Singing Adams - is a fine example of how you can name your music project after yourself without using your first name. Its Steven out of The Broken Family Band with some friends, just doing songs and stuff. Next year it will be noisy, at the moment its quite folky.
