Laura Stevenson and The Cans - Sit Resist

Laura Stevenson is one of the keyboardists of DIY punkers Bomb The Music Industry!, but there's much more to her than that. Whereas BTMI! tend to take a more aggressive punk/ska attitude towards their music, Laura Stevenson chooses to express her ideas through the medium of indie-folk. She created her first solo album in 2008. It was titled simply A Record. The year after that, she put together a short collection of songs and released them as the Holy Ghost! EP. Not that A Record was bad, far from it, but something about Holy Ghost! made the music media sit up and notice Laura in a way they hadn't before. Now here we are in 2011 and Laura Stevenson and The Cans plan to release their highly awaited album Sit Resist on April 26th. If you've never heard Laura Stevenson before, even if you don't really like Bomb The Music Industry! (I don't really....) you should still give her music a shot. Simply put, it's phenomenal.
