Misfit Mod: Islands & Islands

Islands & Islands cover art
 
Islands & Islands is the debut album from Misfit Mod, aka Sarah Ann Kelleher, on Brooklyn based Stars and Letters Records. The interesting back story to this release is that Stars and Letters founder, Mark Roberts, has known the artist for years and has long appreciated the music she made, but only shared with a close circle of friends. It was his love of Misfit Mod's music and the desire to see her reach a wider audience that inspired him to start the label. Very high praise for any artist. The eleven tracks on Islands & Islands do not disappoint, delivering breathtaking vocals backed by masterfully executed minimalist synthpop. This is an artist you need to discover for yourself. Check out the video for the track, Queen Love Zero and then stream and buy Islands & Islands at the link below.
