Sally Crewe and the Sudden Moves
Label: 12XUGenre: Pop
Anyone remember The Housemartins? Musically, Sally Crewe and the Sudden Moves are the various children they left scattered across England in the hedonistic '80s, united to resurrect the pleasantly pointless pop of their parents. Nothing too complex here, just cleanly written songs with straightforward guitar hooks and smooth backing vocals, mostly about cars (and most songs barely making it past two minutes).

Joel RL Phelps and the Downer Trio
Label: 12XUGenre: Pop, Rock
While the band's name has always been a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy, the new single shows off Phelps' range and energy with a brazen and emotive Paul Westerberg-style number.
