Ripple News - New Arrivals CD - Best New Indy Rock

Since we know that all the waveriders are wonderful people, with big heart to go along with their big ears, we thought we'd drop this post into your world. How'd you like to hear some of the best independent new artists currently recording and help a worthwhile charity at the same time? We thought so.

With that in mind, the fine folks at Mpress have just released New Arrivals Vol 3, known as NAV 3 for short. Nav 3 is the third installment in MPress Records' charity compilation series, conceived by MPress founder and Independent Music Award winner Rachael Sage. Volume 3 features a wealth of talent from around the globe: 2007 Toronto Independent Music Award winner Ember Swift, Aussie rockers The Kin (heard on "Army Wives"), L.A.-based Lelia Broussard and Adrienne Pierce (heard on "Veronica Mars"), South Carolina's Jay Clifford (heard on "Grey's Anatomy"), New York "Fox 5 Subway Idol" Theo Eastwind, indie veteran Stephen Kellogg, plus a bonus cut from platinum-selling "Toad The Wet Sprocket" singer Glen Phillips.

Personally, we at the Ripple office were blown away by the beautiful, mournful singing of Five A.M. and their song "Be Still," Christopher Dallman's incredibly smooth indy rock song, "Nighttime in the City," and, of course, a big nod to the great lead off track by Jay Clifford. Overall, it's a fine collection of music, sure to have something to please just about every fan of independent rock.

NAV3 is on iTunes and available in stores nationwide now. Like its predecessors, 100% of net proceeds from the retail sales of NAV3 will benefit another worthy organization, National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA).

Don't delay on this baby. Check it out today.
