Listening Post

Originally from Australia but now based in L.A., Sick Puppies are never going to change the world. They make serviceable straight-forward AOR in the Lifehouse-Goo Goo Dolls vein. Their secret weapon, however, is bassist Emma Anzai, who's as talented as she is ridiculously gorgeous. This track gives her a chance to shine a little beyond her usual guitar skills and it's admittedly a really nice song.

Here's an acoustic version of White Balloons.
