Meg Myers/Jarryd James

Nashville-born singer-songwriter Meg Myers spent some time in Ohio before moving to Los Angeles to pursue a music career. She's been pretty successful so far. Released last year, the EP Make a Shadow yielded two singles: “Desire” and “Heart Heart Head,” both of which show off her incredible intensity (think PJ Harvey or Sinead O’Connor). Another strong offering, her latest album, Sorry, features Cocteau Twins-like pop ("Motel") and industrial-strength power ballads ("Sorry"). A singer with a distinctively soulful voice, Brisbane-based Jarryd James, who just released his debut EP on Interscope Records, opens the show. The EP’s first single, the somber tune “Do You Remember,” sounds a bit like something from R&B icon D’Angelo. It's good stuff. (Niesel)
