Beth Peabody

Other Woman/Don’t Play (Single)

Jim Basnight Music

This debut double A-side single from Peabody is great power pop. "Other Woman" is rootsy, but I also hear a bit of very early Bangles in its garage rock sound. “Don’t Play” is jangly, a little like the Pretenders' “Talk Of The Town.” Both are wonderful. So if you’re looking for something that looks to the past, but makes it new and different, try these.
