Top 10 New York City 2017

In a decade of recording, Francesca Battistelli has taken home GRAMMY® Awards, No. 1 singles, and plenty of Top 10 hits—but more importantly, she’s created a body of work that resonates with listeners across the world, offering thoughtful and encouraging lyrics set to deft, addictive pop. This 15-track anthology—which includes all her big hits, plus two new recordings—is proof enough of her gifts as a writer and performer, whether in the playful melody of “This Is the Stuff”—its whimsy concealing deep lyrics about God’s sovereignty—or in sweeping piano ballads like “Beautiful, Beautiful.”

Born in Western Australia to immigrant parents who had fled the communist regime in Poland, Konrad's musical affinity and passion for jazz piano revealed itself early on. On this album, Konrad Paszkudzki and his piano join together with Dylan Shamat, bass, and Dag Markhus, drums, to compile a 13-track SACD full of jazz's favorite staples from the Cole Porter songbook.

Cameron Avery has arrived as a new breed of nocturnal crooner, a train-wreck romantic creating timeless, ambitious music for the modern age. Utilizing his soulful wit, shrewd arrangements, and a deep, husky baritone, Avery harnesses the dark power and humor of artists like Nick Cave, Scott Walker, and Tindersticks to expertly walk the fine line between vulnerable and venerable. Hailing from the late 2000’s-era Perth, Australia, a healthy scene of hard-hitting garage rock bands, including a long stint as the drummer of Pond, Avery found his musical footing while playing with friends but sought the reward of his own outfit.

After his breakthrough Lost in The Dream, Adam Granduciel takes things a step further. Marrying the weathered hope of Dylan, Springsteen, and Petty with a studio rat’s sense of detail, A Deeper Understanding feels like an album designed to get lost in, where lush textures meet plainspoken questions about life, loss, and hope, and where songs stretch out as though they're chasing answers. For as much as Granduciel says in words, it’s his music that speaks loudest, from the synth-strobing heartland rock of “Holding On” and “Nothing to Find” to ballads like “Clean Living” and “Knocked Down,” whose spaces are as expansive as any sound.

Las Rosas are at the top of their game with their debut album, ''Everyone Gets Exactly What They Want'' on the horizon and a month and a half of European tour dates staring them down, as well as scheduled appearances at SXSW 2017, and US touring through the rest of the year, things have never looked brighter for the New York City trio. Before Las Rosas, these three gents did time in critically acclaimed and like-minded acts including Harlem and Wild Yaks, and those experiences have been distilled into a singular Lp that combines wit and humor with sneering, whip-smart garage rock.
