Burger Records keeps churning out quality releases like In-N-Out Burger churns out, um burgers. You get the point. Anyway, fresh off the grill is San Francisco’s Sarah Bethe Nelson. The first track, Paying, is a slow-burning breakup tune. Here’s some info on Sara Bethe:
As a long-time member of San Francisco’s close-knit rock and roll community, Nelson has obviously inherited her peers’ sense of pensive melody. The songs are simple, but they throw great surprises at us. Recorded at the home studio of song wizard Kelley Stoltz there is a sense of sonic adventure creeping throughout the record. With a crack engineer and a who’s who of great musicians giving life to Nelson’s weary yet inspired observations.
She’s going to be at SXSW. While I’ve only heard on track, that’s enough to get her on my schedule.
