Here are a few songs from the 2004 Knoxville compilation "It Takes a City of Thousands to Hold Us Back." 

The Tenderhooks "Mine All Mine"

For too long, Eska has been the greatest singer you've never heard of. She's performed with a staggering array of talent from Grace Jones to Cinematic Orchestra, Bobby McFerrin to Matthew Herbert - the latter also being the producer of her new, self-titled album along with Dave Okumu and Eska herself. Reflecting her history of flying way above any genre boundaries, the album skims effortlessly through classical, folk, Latin rhythms, Rotary Connection style cosmic soul, experimental soundscapes and, in this song, rugged and rootsy reggae... all capped off with THAT voice.  

Eska "Heroes & Villains" - Boiler Room Debuts

As promised, the new single from Albany, NY native Knowle'ge. It's survival of the illest! #Listen #Learn and #StayTuned.
