Remember this Name: Noa Babayof
In recent months I have found myself being drawn more and more into the new wave of indie music coming out of Israel. But nothing has captured my attention quite like Israeli singer/songwriter Noa Babayof. On June 17, her debut album, From a Window to a Wall, will be released on Drag City imprint Language of Stone Records. Babayof’s haunting voice brings to mind Joni Mitchell, Nico and even Marissa Nadler. She is writing some of the saddest songs this side of Leonard Cohen.

Bleh. I live in Seattle, it’s springtime, I’m just starting to pull my head OUT of the oven. Gimme something I can rock-out to while I’m on my motorcycle….like the new Raconteurs album that just released.
