Hear This: A Fine Frenzy

TEG_Music_A Fine Frenzy

With hauntingly beautiful lyrics, Alison Sudol of A Fine Frenzy has become one of the most unique singer-songwriters in music. Her music has been featured on some of our favorite television shows, including House, How I Met Your Mother, The Hills, and Vampire Diaries. Not only is she an incredible artist, she also has such a passion for literature that a verse form William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream even served as the inspiration behind her professional name, A Fine Frenzy. While some of her older albums have gained popularity, her latest album, Pine, is a nice departure from the melancholic tunes of albums past (not that there aren’t a few good sad songs on this one). Pine is the perfect, mellow rainy day record that definitely deserves a listen. Wondering what to listen to first? Try one of her classics, “Almost Lover”, “You Picked Me”, or “Blow Away”.

We want to know, what are some of your favorite artists you think deserve more attention?

    Love her. Love her music. Love her hair. Think she’s Hayley Williams’ mellowed-out sister.

    Edit: other artists? Hire me as a music editorial consultant and I’ll tell you why The Decemberists, Ed Sheernan, Kodiak Farm Boys, Macklemore, Hoodie Allen, Shovels and Rope, etc. are both good musicians AND hilarious :)

    Love her!  “Almost Lover” was one of my early 20s, super emotional jams.

    I also really like Tristan Prettyman, for similar music.

    Love her! A Fine Frenzy is pretty much on constant rotation in my house, along with The Civil Wars and Elenowen.

    I’ve loved her forever and ever and ever. Her concerts are quite incredible, as well. My favorite A Fine Frenzy song right now is “Now Is The Start”– but my classic favorite is “Come on Come Out” or “Rangers”

    I’m a huge fan of her music! I would love to see Ingrid Michaelson here:)!

    I listen to “Happier” a lot.  I recommend First Aid Kit – I love their songs “hard believer” and “king of the world.”

    Love this feature! “Now Is The Start” is our 2013 anthem :)
