Artist Spotlight: Pulpo

Like piping hot biscuits straight from the oven, Pulpo delivers a delectable, buttery, mouth-watering treat with Hot Bread. Salsa and jazz lovers, dig in to our spotlight after the break!


 


Classical Spotlight: Chopin Piano Works

The beauty of Chopin's music, the majority of which is written for solo piano, comes from its ability to express genuine, familiar emotions. Turkish pianist Idil Biret skillfully mediates between the challenges of the notated music and the piano itself to make Chopin's communication compellingly real and alive in these recordings.


 


Artist Spotlight: Hurray For The Riff Raff

This foursome from the Big Easy deserves a hurray, hoop and holler for It Don't Mean I Don't Love You, a swirl of southern roots and cabaret tunes. Find our spotlight on Hurray for the Riff Raff and selected tracks from their debut album after the break!

Outselling Coldplay (and everyone else) in their home country of South Africa, The Parlotones are bringing their stadium-filling rock worldwide. Today they're releasing a special EP only on Amie Street -- get started by downloading "Beautiful" and "Rock.Paper.Scissors" for free!

Album Spotlight: The Sunstreak

Rochester, NY's The Sunstreak gained many fans at their '06 appearance at the Vans Warped Tour, and have been hard at work recording new material ever since! Check out their newest EP after the break.


 


Artist Spotlight: Kirsten Price

Kirsten Price is a Brit-born, Brooklyn-based singer who has fashioned a sound that Metromix calls "a sassy spin on soul music." Check out her debut album, Guts & Garbage, after the break!
