I heard Meiko's "Boys with Girlfriends" on the radio literally five minutes ago. Googled the lyrics, looked her up on imeem, and decided to blog about her. Her self-titled album came out in September 2008. Though I've only heard one and half tracks, I can tell I already like it.I was struck by the practical advice of "Boys with Girlfriends." Meiko seems to says in hindsight, "I know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends." As a fan of a tongue-in-cheek, bitter tunes, I knew I'd like whoever this was. It wasn't just her lyrics though--Meiko has a beautiful voice, and the tune is catchy and upbeat.
Don't take it from me though; give her a listen:
Boys With Girlfriends - Meiko

Thanks for the awesome recommendation. I also discovered on wiki her name is pronounced "MEE-ko". I hope she makes it to Spokane!
