Who wouldn't want to take a trip across the sea? Straight out of the City of Angels on the west coast comes Shana Levy, and her one woman act that she calls Let's Go Sailing. Levy and her outfit bring an excellent brand of indie-pop to the arena. The avid concert-goer may even recognize them - Chris Chandler (known for his production of Modest Mouse and and Elliot Smith) has been featuring Let's Go Sailing as The Flaming Lips house music for years. But it's more than happy guitar/piano combos mixed with jovial lyrics.
Let's Go Sailing brings more than just happiness and glee to the picture of bubbly indie-pop. Levy brings emotional, moving lyrics and powerful thematic elements in her music, and is letting Let's Go Sailing advance the style of modern music to it's apex. It's definitely something you'll want to check out, not to mention snagging Let's Go Sailing's LP, The Chaos and Order, and checking out some songs from the album on their Myspace!
