I have only recently discovered Deadbeat, but I have loved everything I have heard since that discovery. Deadbeat is Jessica Risker, a singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL. She has been playing around for several years, with other projects (most notably 'Absinthe and the Dirty Floors'), and has recently made the jump to a solo musician.
Lo-fi in sound and spirit, Deadbeat creates the sort of music to listen to on dark rainy nights, or long drives in the country. Truly wonderful stuff.
