Elizabeth Harper has a new CD out (her debut?) well she strikes me as a lady who doesn't quite know who she wants to be - on the first track she comes across as a female Morrisey - it really does sound like a Smiths song -all the moves are there except maybe the lyrics.....later on she turns into PJ Harvey. Its kind of a mixture between the two really. Its good and jangly. Clever English guitar pop. This is brought to us by Angular Recordings who first brought us Bloc Party. So There.

Re-release of New York artist Elizabeth Harper’s 2004 debut album, produced by Scott Rosenthal (Crystal Stilts, Chairlift).
Recorded in a Brooklyn apartment, Elizabeth Harper and her band The Matinee rejected the slick results of studio sessions for a home made approach that highlights lush guitar layers alongside children’s keyboards and an old, creaky piano.
From the jangle of ‘Trouble In The Palace’ to the understated melancholy of ‘Low Tide’ and ‘Clean Cut’, pop credentials are retained throughout. This 10 track album is a real gem.
