Graffiti6

Add Date: July 5 

Artist: Graffiti6 

Album: Annie You Save Me EP 

Label: Capitol

Genre: Indie pop 

Comments: Made "MTVs Push Artists" and "Ones to Watch in 2011" by MTV and The New York Post, Graffiti6 is comprised of UK producer TommyD and singer/songwriter Jamie Scott. Both had previously worked with some of the A-list musicians in the industry (ranging from Kanye to Alicia Keys) before they found themselves collaborating on a music sampler titled Stare Into the Sun, drawing so much exposure that the duo began working on more songs. With Annie You Save Me, a 4-track EP containing remixes of the title track and acoustic versions of other songs, Graffiti6 again displays their "genre-defying blend of pop, psychedelia, R&B, and British Northern Soul". Even if this is just a small taste of their upcoming album Colours, the EP still makes for a nice treat to tide us over.

Any of the four tracks are good for spinning, but I'd recommend "Annie You Save Me (Timmy The Terror Wrabble Remix)" and "No Diggity" (yes, it's an acoustic cover of BlackStreet).
