| | Tai Shan Tiny Planet CD Tai Shan Discography of CDs
Tai Shan has been described as sounding like John Mayer and Jack Johnson with the voice of Joni Mitchell. She has been called one of “Seattle’s finest singer-songwriters and composers.” Her clear soprano voice and complex guitar melodies have been featured on nationally released CD’s, international videos, local TV and radio stations. She has performed throughout the West Coast at venues such as Seattle’s Benaroya Hall and San Francisco’s Grace Cathedral. She has composed for jazz ensembles and string quartets. Her songs have been featured on several promotional CD's. In 2005 she was chosen to represent Cornish College of the Arts with her song “Love Will Kill You in Time.” It was recorded with internationally known jazz bassist Chuck Deardorf and distributed nationally. Grammy Nominee Jovino Santos-Neto calls her a "Seamstress of Melodies," and Earshot Jazz winner Randy Halberstat states "She will ambush you with her compositions and unique guitar voicing." Tai Shan graduated with honors from Seattle’s renowned Cornish College of the Arts. Tai Shan has been featured on San Francisco Bay Area Television and radio shows including a live 1 hour interview on PBS's Our Roots are Showing. In 2008 filmmakers used her environment song "Tiny Planet" for the HBO documentary The Search for Turtle Island. Her music has also been featured on more than 100 Hewlett-Packard and Agilent Technology videos, which have been distributed in Southeast Asia and China. She has also appeared before numerous audiences at festivals and clubs on the West Coast and has developed a strong following and fan base. Tai Shan has just released her new CD Tiny Planet. The music is a sensitive, polished, collection of Tai Shan’s original songs woven with lush sounds of her rich soprano voice. Her lyrics combine with acoustic guitar, organ, cello, bass and drums to create her bolero, country, and jazz-infused tunes. The lyrical content of the songs range from evolution to alcoholism, with wide sweeping melodies. “Tiny Planet,” the title track of the CD, is a song about the sea and its interconnection with the evolution of mankind. Proceeds from the online sales of this song will be donated to Seattle’s People for Puget Sound, an environmental, non-profit group dedicated to the restoration of the Puget.

Purchase Tiny Planet CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Monsters Of Folk CD (2009)
Tiny Planet album
$12.99 When M. Ward, Mike Mogis, Jim James, and Conor Oberst announced plans to record together, fans were quick to link the supergroup to the Traveling Wilburys, who blazed a similarly star-studded path 20 years prior. Truth be told, Monsters of Folk's emphasis on harmony vocals and atmospheric arrangements has just as much in common with the work of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, even if the political concerns that grounded the latter group are largely absent here. Instead, the self-titled MONSTERS OF FOLK ...

| | Hope Sandoval Through The Devil Softly CD (2009) Digipak
Tiny Planet music CDs
$10.75 Hope Sandoval basically disappeared from the scene following the release of 2001's BAVARIAN FRUIT BREAD. That album's tender and spooky folk seemed like a nice beginning for her post-Mazzy Star career and her musical partnership with ex-My Bloody Valentine drummer Colm O'Ciosoig promised more goodness to come. But it wasn't until 2009's THROUGH THE DEVIL SOFTLY that the duo reappeared. The album showed that not much had changed musically for them. The hazy, slow motion feel of the music here is of a piece with Sandoval's body of work, the restraint and careful placement of instruments is equally as effective and the songs are haunting, perhaps even more so. Most of all, there's Sandoval's voice, which is as beguiling and bewitching as ever. She makes everything sound like it was recorded at 2:00 AM in the middle of the kind of dream you never want to wake up from. If you look a little deeper, though, there are things that make this album much more successful than Sandoval's debut. The one thing that was somewhat lacking on the first Warm Inventions record were songs with memorable hooks and while this album doesn't exactly scream Top 40 or boast any sing-along choruses, it does at least have more of a sense of melody and forward motion. Tracks like "For the Rest of Your Life," "Trouble and Fall Aside" fit this bill, and "There's a Willow" comes magically close to a straightforward Mazzy Star-like ...
| | Bon Iver For Emma, Forever Ago CD (2008)
Tiny Planet songs
$12.19 Recorded in a cabin in Northern Wisconsin in the dead of winter in long sessions intermittently broken up for the chopping and gathering of firewood, FOR EMMA, FOREVER AGO is the impressive debut release from Bon Iver aka Justin Vernon. With warmly recorded acoustic guitars and double-tracked vocals, FOR EMMA sounds like vintage Elliot Smith playing in the Pink Mountaintops. ...
| | David Bromberg My Own House/You Should See The Rest Of The Band CD (1999)
Tiny Planet album
$6.79 As of the late 1990s, guitarist and fiddler David Bromberg was in musical semi-retirement, supplementing his day job (making his living buying and selling American-made violins) with the odd club gig. But in the 1970s, he had a thriving career as both a bandleader and a sideman, having played on seminal recordings by Bob Dylan, the Eagles, and Jerry Jeff Walker, among others. This disc includes two of his early albums: first, the acoustic and largely solo My Own House, on which he plays a program that ranges from traditional Scottish and American fiddle tunes through Delta blues and songs by Hoagy Carmichael and Phil Spector. Talk about Americana. The second album included on this disc couldn't be more of a contrast: You Should See the Rest of the Band is a live recording with a large and very definitely electric band. David Bromberg the rock & roll bandleader is much more inclined toward horn-driven R&B ("Key to the Highway," "Sharon"), although he does pull out the fiddle for a high-octane romp through a medley of traditional tunes at the end of the show. His singing, while not bad, isn't really worth mentioning. What stand out are his wide-ranging tastes, his instrumental chops, and his skill as a bandleader, all of which combine to make this both a valuable piece of pop music history and a thrilling listening ...
