Tooth And Nail

The newest kids on the Tooth & Nail block are a hit and date night just found a soundtrack. Poema, fronted by two sisters from Albuquerque, New Mexico, offer a harmonious blend of acoustic pop and melodic romantic tones. Their name, appropriately meaning beautiful masterpiece, sums up the feel of the new EP, Sing It Now.

Reminiscent of Sara Bareilles, Ingrid Michaelson, and Colbie Caillat, Elle, 17, plays guitar and sings lead vocals alongside her sister Shaeleen, 19, who plays piano and sings harmony. Inspired by Pride & Prejudice and their personal life, these two are definitely stars in the making. The lyrics are sure to touch your heart with their expressions of the desire to love and be loved. I cannot wait to see these two in concert at Cornerstone.

Produced by Aaron Sprinkle (Anberlin, The Almost, Copeland), this EP is a steal at $5 to pre-order. The EP drops March 23, 2010.
