INARA GEORGE

FERRABY LIONHEART
DANIEL MARTIN MOORE

INARA GEORGE
Inara George is one half of The Bird and the Bee and a member of the trio The Living Sisters, with Eleni Mandell and Becky Stark. Jackson Browne wrote the song "Of Missing Persons" for Inara George after the death of her father.

"Ms. George muses on love, yearning and separation in lyrics that can be ingenuous or surreal." -New York Times

"With her steady, crystalline voice, the only voice heard, George sounds like the still center of a swirling one-woman musical." - Pitchfork

ELENI MANDELL
"With a sultry smokes-and-booze voice and a delivery that's "can't be bothered" one minute and "pinch me if I'm dreaming" the next, Eleni Mandell is hopeful and derisive, dramatic and playful, a Holly Golightly if she'd been written by Raymond Chandler... The dry, textured instrumentation scares away at all the right moments, allowing her quietly molten voice to seep into the cracks. Imagine Norah Jones if she subbed Starbucks for martinis, plus some of Suzanne Vega's artful detachment minus the chill factor." - Rolling Stone

"Los Angeles singer-songwriter Eleni Mandell ... was weaned on artists like Tom Waits and X, and her dark and sexy songs have been compared to those of everyone from Chan Marshall to Patsy Cline." - New Yorker

FERRABY LIONHEART
"For fans of Devendra Banhart and Rufus Wainwright, Nashville born and Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Ferraby Lionheart's sweetly yearning vocals and quirkily imagistic lyrics mix into intimate piano and guitar driven pieces that often grow into larger moments punctuated by deft horn and string arrangements. In that sense, Lionheart will most surely draw favorable comparisons to such iconic '60s artists as the Beatles, Harry Nilsson and Brian Wilson. In truth, Lionheart's melodic pop most closely resembles the work of Elliott Smith and in that sense, fans of Smith should find much to enjoy here." - All Music Guide
