Plant White Roses
I heard "Plant White Roses" on the radio, and that brought Kelly Hogan to my attention.

Nice restrained production.
I Like to Keep Myself in Pain
If you're not familiar with Miss Kelly, then don't make the mistake of downloading this and leaving it on your computer. From her opening intake of breath on "Dusty Groove," this album deserves to be played on a decent stereo; in fact, Miss Kelly and her backing musicians are so determinedly subtle it all but demands it. What's striking is how this touches on all the different genres she adores, yet with fresh material, from the country gothic of "Ways of This World" to the gorgeous harmonies of "Slumber's Sympathy," which could have been written specifically with her side project the Flat Five in mind. To my mind, however, the singles here are the uptempo "Haunted" and "Sleeper Awake." Play either one more than once, and you won't be able to stop.
Pain never sounded so sweet or soulful.
This is more than worth the wait, Kelly has outdone herself! Great tunes, great performances, full of gut rendering potential. This is one to savor....

Cloud Nothings, The Men, and now Japandroids have all unleashed big, brawny records that boasted a sort of mule-kicking defiance. This one is Highly Recommended.

Interview: Kelly Hogan
By Ashley Melzer, eMusic Contributor
It's no surprise that Kelly Hogan has made a few friends through the years. The Wisconsin-based singer's career is a storied one. She started in Atlanta with The Jody Grind, changed gears for a turn as one of the Rock*A*Teens, then settled in for a spell as the honey voiced sweetheart of the Chicago roots scene. Along the way, she took a turn as publicist and then artist for Bloodshot Records, painted a few houses… more »
