Torres

One of the genuine surprises for me last week during SXSW was artist Torres, and her sundrenched and hazy style of alt-rock, a sound totally indebted to much of the music i listened to in my teenage years, but done in a way that felt refreshing, like more than just a revival act.  She's got some elements of PJ Harvey in her sound...and that's always an excellent thing.  Listen to "Strange Hellos" below and be on the lookout for the "Sprinter" LP in may on Partisan.
