Listen and Love

When indie-rocker Michael Benjamin Lerner signed a record deal with Merge Records earlier this year, he quickly released his band's first self-titled debut, Telekinesis. Produced by Death Cab's Chris Walla, this Seattle-based band reinvents power-pop perfection. Despite an album chalk full of bubbly chords and irresistible hooks, my favorite track is the slower ballad "I Saw Lightning."
