Pete Molinari (uk) Supp: Amelia White (us)

When Bruce Springsteen was asked by Edward Norton during his interview at the Toronto Film Festival about what music he was listening to these days his reply was simple and direct: “Pete Molinari – and if you don’t know anything about him, he’s great”

Praise indeed, but in many ways hardly surprising. The Boss is well known for keeping his ear to the ground when it comes to new sounds and considering Pete’s nomination as Best Newcomer at UK rock magazine’s Mojo Awards, his appearance on BBC’s Later With Jools Holland and the critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic (a recent residency in LA was a huge success) for latest album A Train Bound For Glory it was never going to be too long before the man from New Jersey clocked the boy from Chatham.

Amelia White:

Raised In Virginia, and based in Nashville, Amelia White cut her musical teeth in the New England area, in the same scene that produced Mary Gauthier, Lori McKenna and Sarah Borges. Her music has been described as hard rocking -folkin -alt-art country… Her Albums BLUE SOUVENIRS and BLACK DOVES (funzalo Records 2006) put her on the map with critical acclaims nationwide, steady non-com radio play, appearances on E-Town and NPR’s All Songs Considered and various TV placements.
