The Heart of the Night Show rides again on a glorious mixed bag of Indie music that is sure to please those of you who can't be constrained to a narrow definition of genres in your hunt for musical goodness. I am particularly pleased to be bringing you a new one from London's own Tom McKean and the Emperors. Their debut CD is still in the works, but I've been lucky enough to score some advance selections, and they are brilliant! The show turned out a bit "British Empire" this week with additional music from British bands The Cellophane Flowers, The Bad Hands, Fearless Vampire Killers and their Australian cousins, The Wells. South Carolina's Aaron Berg makes the only US showing this episode, but I think he holds his own pretty well. Then again, come to think of it, it wasn't too long ago that the Brits had us in tow as well.

Back to the show again after a long period working to update the IndieHeart site to make it an easier place for you to find music...I hope it worked and you'll stop by! Artists on the show this week include lovely ladies Alexx Calise and Star Anna and The Laughing Dogs along with the equally lovely Neil Nathan, Zia Hassan, Renegade Ride, and Sexstone. Yeah...yeah...it's terribly eclectic. Jill Nojack is an eclectic kind of gal.

The show returns from hiatus this week with lots that is new! New artists debuting on the show this week include Lizzie Nunnery from Liverpool and Megan Paige from New Jersey. These ladies will knock your socks off! Three of the Heart of the Night Show favorite artists also released new CDs while the lazy HOTN Show DJ was on vacation, so we hope you enjoy the new releases from crashtv's "Sound Put" CD, The Daniel Iorio Group's "Hike" CD, and The James Clark Institute's "SideShow Unattraction" CD. New Jersey's Headlights on the Coastline round out what we think is a pretty fab show with a the wide variety of Indie and Unsigned music you've come to expect.

Roots rock and roll, heavy rock, folk/rock, pop/rock, acoustic screamo...whatever you like - this show has a little something for you. This encore episode showcases Indie music from Germany (Pull A Star Trip), the UK (Tom McKean and the Emperors), Austria (Gustave Berthe), Russia (Puzzlescum), Australia (King Curly), Canada (Number One World), and the good ol' US of A (The Wildlife and Neil Benjamin). It will definitely bring you a planetary tour of some of the best music from the Indie and Unsigned world.

This encore episode of the Heart of the Night Show reaches back to August of 2006 to run the gamut with an all out bit of madness from refrag (New Zealand) to a gentle acoustic tune from Misanthropy (UK). In between, tunes from a great gaggle of Canadian musicians, including Melissa McClelland, LoadPuller, Tim Tibbitts, Carly and Mark, and Daniel Iorio. The show ends with Iowa's Circle of Friends and show hostess, jill no jack, taking a turn as vocalist to poke a bit of fun at everyone's favorite "Pop Princess", Britney Spears. (Yeah...that's right - everyone is taking a turn at that these days, eh? It's starting to not even be fun anymore.)

This last show before the HOTN show goes on hiatus brings you some terrific new songs. England's crashtv has been kind enough to grant the Heart of the Night Show an exclusive track from the upcoming CD, Soundput, and I think you're going to dig it! This show also includes a wonderful acoustic pop tune from Paul Liddell's new EP, New Thing Coming, an out-of-character but beautifully sad acoustic tune from Colorado's Our Funeral Forgotten, and some good old rock 'n roll from New Jersey's Headlights on the Coastline and Wisconsin's Certain Stars. We round out the show with Mr. Sexy Voice from Pakistan himself, Moby.MK.II. (The guys listening to the show may not get it, but we ladies need a treat once in a while, don't we?)
