Saboteur By Gardening, Not Architecture

Gardening, Not Architecture is the product of one very persistent and talented veteran of the scene, Sarah Saturday. Her latest album, “Saboteur,” came out in November and is filled with soft rock-electric indie bliss. The first time I saw Sarah live I was completely captivated and convinced. At times “Saboteur” reminds me of early Tegan and Sara meets progressive Uh Huh Her. Overall, the finished product is close to perfect.

As if the release of “Saboteur” wasn’t enough, Miss Saturday has released a fun, experimental project that she calls “The Florida Sessions.” She spent two weeks alone in Florida and began recording demos, posting them to her site. “It’s my shorter-term and less-intense version of Bon Iver’s stint in a northern Wisconsin cabin that produced For Emma, Forever Ago”, says Sarah. You can find “The Florida Sessions” at her soundcloud- http://soundcloud.com/sarahsaturday as well as www.gardeningnotarchitecture.com. Join the mailing list so you can receive updates and all kinds of tunes!

Sarah Saturday is a driving force in our music scene. She remains so true and genuine to not only herself but to her listeners. She has been an inspiration to myself and a model for so many others on following your dreams and sometimes just throwing ambition to the wind! Pick up “Saboteur” on Itunes and check out “The Florida Sessions” today!

I Got It By Brandan Smith

“This why I’m hot, plus my album bout to drop..”

Patience can be a cruel thing. Luckily, for Brandan Smith fans, the waiting process is over. Smith has finally given us a taste of his second album Against The Grain. With “I Got It,” we see an upgrade in beats and musicianship while maintaining the same witty flow that made us fall in love with Smith from the beginning. While we are still waiting on the sophomore release, at least he has given us a little something to hold us over. Enjoy the latest from RulDope’s very own, Brandan Smith!
