GM's MUSIC BOX/ KHSU-FM, 90.5/ MON., 22 FEB. 10

Originally from Rockford, IL, youthful singer/songwriter Lissie Maurus has released an impressive ep, Why You Runnin', on Fat Possum. Throw in a dose of Bobbie Gentry and Jeannie C. Riley, with a contemporary edge, and you get an idea what Lissie is capable of. Only time will tell how the transplanted Southern Californian survives the road, the business and all the rest. Good luck. Really.
