| Working on the gift list for family and friends? Then you cannot go wrong with new music. Just in time for the holidays, an Illinois-based indie singer/ songwriter of the name Sarah Schonert, has released her album ‘Penguin Party.’ This LP takes an experimental approach sure to resonate with music fan innovators like Kate Bush and Imogen Heap. Sarah writes and records out of her home studio, combining classical-sounding piano with ambient washes, vocoded synths, electronic elements, and layered vocals. What we like about this artist: she is not afraid to experiment with vintage instruments or new technology to create her sound. | |
