Canadians (Lindi / Andrew Haughton)

Part I of my email:

Remember Lindi?  Sweet vibrato, piano, Toronto, 2001?
http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/246/lindi.html?  I could swear she was in
the Guide, but I don't see her listed...

Well, she's back in action.  I recently visited her website at www.lindi.org
and here's what she had to say about her new stuff:

---------quoted text-----------
I am currently recording some new material with producer James Robertson. We
just recently recorded a cover version of The Door's PEOPLE ARE STRANGE. I'm
going to see if I can put a clip of it up online so people can hear what
sort of style I'm doing now. It's not too much of a stray from the first
c.d. My music is still quite dark and moody... perhaps a little more
sinister and a little heavier.. more guitar driven...more ROCK! I am very
excited about it. I hope to be releasing something in 2004. Mostly I have
been writing new songs and recording. I will be playing a few intimate shows
here and there just so people don't think I've dropped off the planet..but
also because I love playing live it's my favorite thing to do and part of me
just needs to do it regardless.

I will keep everyone updated on the progress of the recording and let people
know when a possible release date will be for 2004.

Okay, here's part II of my email:

Another amazing young Canadian talent, Andrew Haughton.  I don't really know
if his stuff really fits into the Ecto genre, but it has great atmosphere
nonetheless, and I think that's what's drawing me to it.  Many of the songs
have a head-bobbing, simple groove to them, and Andrew's vocal style changes
from song to song, but he sounds great in all of them.

He has three songs up at MP3.com that you'll need to rush over to listen to
(as MP3.com will wipe them out in a day or so). This is Andrew's older
stuff.  My personal favorite is "It's Not Too Late," with its beautiful,
simple keyboards and catchy melody.  Here's the URL:

There are also three songs up at Garagebands.com, of which "Swimming with
the Sharks" is my favorite.  Here's the URL for that site:
