I talked up Nicole Atkins before, with her briliant Neptune City album. Her new album, Mondo Amore, is quite wonderful as well. I don't understand why a derivative hack like Amy Winehouse has enjoyed so muc success, when the much superior (and eclectic) Nicole Atkins is still a secret tip in the blogosphere and SXSW circles.

On a completely different vibe, Buddy Miller's The Majestic Silver Strings is a quite beautiful country album. It includes a fair number of collaborations with the likes of Emmylou Harris, Patty Griffin (whose Downtown Church album from last year he produced), Shawn Colvin and LeeAnne Womack.
