An album i’ve been enjoying as of late comes from Anni Rossi, who currently resides in the Chicago area and recently added to the mighty 4AD label. Ms. Rossi, a 23-year old classically trained and accomplished multi-instrumentalist, has been around for a couple of years now, as i’ve seen her mentioned in a few places going as far back as 2006. She plays a type of sound that I’ve suddenly decided to dub as “viola-pop.” What is this you may ask? I honestly have no idea, but her acoustic-based songs revolve around the almost frantic-like use of a viola, so there you have it.
Her debut full-length, Rockwell, is due out on March 10th. Definitely worth checking out if you’re curious.
