Casey Dienel
If I were on a street at this very moment I would stand upon my soapbox and declare that Casey Dienel's "Better in Manhattan" will make your life better. The product of a daytrotter session, this song hasn't made it to one of Dienel's albums yet but has me imagining that her new album will be something great. She is a student of the narrative school of songwriting, who is not afraid to drop a few hooks to catch you in her web.
Witness when the refrain "Sugar Sugar Sugar, Come here" enters the scene. I dare you to not be captivated and engrossed by the story being sung so sweetly to you.

Hey Jay,
couldn't agree more, she has something special going on- surprised nobody's mentioned "Blue"-era Joni Mitchell in describing her. She's great nonetheless (as is DayTrotter, thanks).
Sixto Rodriguez?

saw her live at a house econcert in Chicago, actually first I sat next to her on the couch for the opening band. there were a bout 12 people there. anyway you're dead on and live the song is a showstopper (it was either that or the espresso machine)
