There are some really great songs coming south from our friends in Columbus. And some of the more recent gems are coming straight from singer songwriter Megan Palmer. Palmer has just released a brand new full length album, her second, and I can tell you that if you dig female indie singer songwriters, this one should be right up your alley. Palmer is a seriously talented singer and I will be surprised if this new album does not garner her some real national attention.

The new album was recorded out west in Joshua Tree, California by Bingo (Kevin Richey) of the Bingo Band and The Thriftstore All-Stars under the supervision of Tim Easton. She also gets some help from anther great Columbus talent on the album, Eric Metronome.

And it sure doesn’t hurt that this new album is being released from our friends at Sunken Treasure Records, which, as they put it, is a Donewaiting.com situation.

Pick up Megan Palmer’s new album from Sunken Treasure after (or before) you sample these two new songs.

Megan Palmer – Deadman
Megan Palmer – Take You Away

About Joe Long

Joe started ENS in 2003 after most people he wanted to talk to about music were worn thin by his ramblings. The outlet this site provided helped out, and somehow is still going 9 years later. After a four year stint as a WOXY DJ, Joe returned to Cincinnati and continues to pioneer ENS. In addition to the overall look and feel of the site, Joe provides regular reviews, and kinda makes sure this whole thing stays afloat.
