New Music: Micol Cazzell - 'Burnside'

"My friend Scott Bartenhagen..." Micol Cazzell began in a recent e-mail, and, well, any friend of Scott's is a friend of Rawkblog's. Cazzell also makes delicate, tender folk, though his falls more in line with the airy, porcelain beauty of late-period Elliott Smith or Slowreader. On "Burnside," his doubled vocals -- just out of sync enough to make your hair stand on end -- rise around a single finger-picked acoustic guitar, a cowboy song sung by ghosts.
