Artist EDDIE VEDDER
Title Ukulele Songs
Label
There is no irony in the title of Eddie Vedder’s first full-fledged solo album: these are indeed songs performed on a ukulele, an instrument uncommon but not unknown to rockers.  He has nothing more in mind on Ukulele Songs than singing, whether it’s with duet partners Glen Hansard and Cat Power or just on his own, tossing out love songs, something he generally has avoided with Pearl Jam.

Artist Kathleen Edwards (polaris)
Title Voyageur
Label
Singer/songwriter Kathleen Edwards has different kinds of traveling in mind on her album Voyageur. There is the geographic kind, of course, but also the journey through the seasons of nature, and, especially, the trip a love affair represents from its beginning to end.

Title Wonderful, Glorious
Label V2
WONDERFUL, GLORIOUS is rich in highly creative, unprecedented songs. "I don’t know what to compare a lot of these songs to," Everett says. "They’re their own thing, you know? We were all really excited with what we were making."  EELS’ tenth album is brimming with life and the tribulations that make it worthwhile -- the trials of a man fighting for his life, his sanity, and the search for meaning.

Artist EFRIM MANUEL MENUCK (Godspeed/Silver Mt. Zion)
Title High Gospel
Label Constellation
The droning, mangled electric guitar beds that underpin group-vocal melodies and divebombing electronics on the album’s opening track, and the hauntingly processed field recordings and ominous tape-delayed sound-sculpture of "a 12-pt. program for keep on keeping on", establish Menuck’s inimitable sonic palette in uncompromising and inspired style. "12-pt. program" ends in a glorious squall of soaring tones and distorted breakcore beats that yield to the ensuing song’s intimate yet wide-screen suite for electric guitar and violin (courtesy Silver Mt. Zion bandmate and partner Jessica Moss). "heavy calls & hospitals blues" closes Side 1 with a simple piano-based ballad that harkens back to Efrim’s vocal debut on the first Silver Mt. Zion album in 1999.
