24-year-old Norwegian firecracker is Ida Maria brazen, honest and angsty. Her voice is husky and rough, coated with cigarette smoke and late night alcohol (well, at least it sounds like it is). And her words - her musings - are prolific in their simplicity. Ida Maria is amazing, and that's why she's our cover star.
Also in this issue, we have Swedish indie act The Sounds, Los Angeles-based Miss Derringer, New Hampshire's breakout outfit Wild Light, Japanese gypsy rock band Kagero from New York, local acts Kevin McQuiston and Quelle Source, and so much more, so check it out.
