Those looking for a swirling retro-flavored dose of soul, gospel, and rock-tinged folk should look no further than Mynabirds' debut record, What We Lose in the Fire We Gain in the Flood. Mynabirds is actually the solo project of Georgie James singer Laura Burhenn, a vocalist who has earned flattering comparisons to Cat Power, Feist, Nina Simone, and Grace Slick. What We Lose in the Fire... is a suitably star-studded affair, with appearances from Bright Eyes' Nate Walcott, Azure Ray's Orenda Fink, and Monsters of Folk producer AJ Mogis.

Spaceland says…

Crooked Fingers fans who enjoyed Eric Bachmann's 2006, bare-bones acoustic To the Races LP, yet yearned for the kind of heavily orchestrated, E Street Band-fueled Americana that graced 2003's Red Devil Dawn and 2005's Dignity and Shame, will no doubt be pleased by Forfeit/Fortune.
