Ty Segall.  Brilliant grungy punk – never seen Ty Segall live before and glad i did. twice.

Listen to “Caesar” from their latest disc ‘Melted’:

Suuns.  Admittedly never heard of Suuns (formerly called Zeroes) before CMJ started but really wanted to see their set and braved a packed crowd at Pianos to do so.  I’ll let the NY Times explain this one.

Lia Ices.  Gorgeous voice washed in chorus with excellent band behind her to showcase a set of really smart songs.  A nice surprise.

Reggie Watts.  I’ve known of Reggie for a few years but hadn’t seen his show this up close and personal before.  It was simply amazing and wickedly funny.

I also attended an official CMJ panel featuring TuneCore CEO Jeff Price and George Howard, which was a fascinating discussion on artist rights, royalties, publishing – how an artist can enable and control their career. Read more here.

Dan Leslie argues that small payments online of less than a dollar will become more routine, largely because of places like the iTunes Store. He also gives a shout-out to our friends at TuneCore.com, who are at the forefront of the digital music universe.
