This Music Ain't Broken
Like me, many of you may have been first introduced to Sarah Borges & The Broken Singles via 2005's "Silver City." It had all the elements that I love -- a roots-rock feel, just enough twang for flavor and killer songs.

What might have surprised you is that Borges calls Boston home and that she has even worked at the Berklee College of Music. But rather than approach things too analytically, Borges let her own instincts lead her on a quest of discovery for all kinds of American roots music.

She and the boys -- now signed to Sugar Hill -- return with "Diamonds in the Dark." The album was again produced by Paul Q. Kolderie, and they pick up where they left off with the debut, adding in some new and interesting elements to the music for flavor.

Several tracks deserve your attention on the new album, but be sure to focus on the single, "The Day We Met," first.

" It's obviously a band, with three other guys in it," says Borges, "but somebody has to drive the train. I'm lucky enough that I've met guys who have really incredible talents at what they do."
