Oh, Shh. From W be easy Chicago and PRX this is sound opinions. I'm Jim De Regottis and I'm

Greg Kot. This week we're digging into our stacks of new music and sharing some of our favorites.

From fresh metal out of Phoenix to the genre bending work of Angelica Garcia, we've got new music you need to hear. Plus we'll talk with up-and-coming singer-songwriter, Tasha.

A new place, a new time.

A new sign, new sunlight. That's all coming up on sound opinions.

You are listening to

You are listening to sound opinions and this week it's all about new music you need to hear.

Now later in the show we're going to talk about someone I was enchanted with at South

by Southwest in Austin Texas, Tasha, Chicago-based artist in a city full of singer-songwriters struggling

to be heard.

Tasha stood up because she was quieter than everybody else and enjoying the heck out of it.

It was a terrific performance and we're going to get more into it later on in the show but first it's time

for another round of buried treasures.

Jim you and I go deep on some recordings that we've been moved by but have been unable

to work into the show mainly because they're not super mainstream kind of recordings, but

stuff that you and I both cherish.

We relish turning people on to new sounds they haven't heard and you are leading us off.

Actually, if you ever listen to me, you might have heard me talk about these guys, because I saw

them at South by Southwest years ago, but I don't blame you.

Well, I do like Bleached.

I like their first couple of records, but I really like their new album album don't you think you've had enough.

I think this is the record where they kind of step up in terms of the songwriting.
