Following stunning performances at SXSW, including a memorable set at Alternative Press’ “100 Bands You Need To Know” Party and a passionate acoustic session for Yahoo! Music, and the release of several new tracks from Say What You Mean, including “Making It Up,” “Nothing Left,” “Wait For Me” and “One Way Love,” Weiss’ trajectory to indie rock notoriety has skyrocketed.
PromoImageFans and media are salivating over the impassioned singer’s sophomore record’s heartfelt lyrics and brilliant songwriting saying it’s a “strong and impressively tart new album” (New York Times) and that she “somehow makes honesty seem downright fun without diluting the message” (Glamour.com).
Weiss’ latest offering “Hole In Your Heart” is yet another reason people are falling in love with the new album.  The twenty-something singer picks up the pace again with a song riddled with angst about jaded love…another astounding track on the praised album.
Weiss will wrap up her month long tour with Candy Hearts and Pentimento this week and is expected to announce more touring again very soon.
