Artist: Pillbox Remedy
Song: Anne Janines Last Stand (from the CD Go On, Take the Scissors and Run)
Heard By: Morgan McDaniel, North Park
I liked it. I think its catchy, and it would definitely do well with the indie crowd. It was just acoustic guitar and vocals. The lyrics were observations about a girl and her story. It was airy, bright, and carefree. I thought it had a likeness to a lot of indie artists like Rooney or the Thrills but with acoustic guitar, so maybe Elliott Smith, too. Ive been to a lot of festivals like Austin City Limits, and you hear a lot of stuff like this Rilo Kiley, Kaiser Chiefs bands that are kind of known to that certain demographic. I think it would have potential to maybe go more mainstream.

This four-track demo features an acoustic guitar and heartfelt ballads that waffle between emo and adult contemporary. In other words, four songs too long. Jim Ruland
