LA based indie band Downtown?Union has its fun side as well as its serious one. Their sound is pop punk, but kind of mellow and peaceful pop punk, music which won't overwhelm you when you play it.

Jennifer Spengler has a very hands-on approach to her music, writing, producing, and mastering everything herself. Her style has influences of Michael Jackson, Kelly Clarkson, and other pop rock singers.

This song, Stay There This Time, is a soothing acoustic track.

Last week, I posted an mp3 of Jana G's single, "Sleepin'". I've since gotten hold of the music video of the track, so here it is for anyone who's interested.

Austin native singer-songwriter Erin Ivey sings mellow folk songs about the sea, love, and other matters. Her songs are kind of laidback, and her voice is comfortable enough to lie down on, add to the mix heartfelt lyrics, and you'll know why this girl is called "Austin's urban folk darling", and has been named one of Austin's top unsigned artists.

Erin's album comes out summer 2010, and you can preorder it on her website here.

Casondra Zambrano has a pretty unique kind of tone to her voice, which is well suited to her pop rock genre. She writes songs concerning the more serious issues of life (such as her song, "I Died on the Freeway", which deals with fallin alseep at the wheel.)

iBF (Imaginary Boyfriend) is a fun pop song by Leah Renee. She kind of reminds me of a younger Jessica Simpson, with her voice and looks.

Leah's album was supposed to come out in summer 2009, but so far I haven't seen any signs of it anywhere.
