Poppy

Zee Avi stands out as a testament to the wonders of YouTube. A few songs uploaded, some of which were self penned, and suddenly she had a recording contract with Brushfire records and was touring across the USA.

When I first heard "Bitter Heart", Zee's first single, I was sufficiently intrigued to purchase her album. The album revealed a strong selection of songs, with some standing out more than others. One of those stand out songs was "Poppy" - as upbeat as the song sounds, I would suggest closing your eyes and listening to the lyrics carefully. You'd be surprised.


Zee released her 2nd album, "Ghostbird" this week. I haven't heard it yet, but I'm hoping that it lives up to the standards she's already set.
