Kimya Dawson

I'll always enjoy Dawson's do-it-yourself approach and lazy vocals, but Alphabutt doesn't cut it. This album was apparently inspired by the birth of her baby, named Panda.

Moldy Peaches Heart Degrassi

With just a few days to go before they cross the 49th parallel to play for their northern brothers and sisters again, New York's Moldy Peaches seem keen on exploring some of their Canadian memories.
