It thrills me no end to see artists whose work I have loved since Day One get the recognition they've worked so hard for. Last year I ran a cut off Pamela Hute's then-unreleased album Turtle Tales From Overseas. I had the feeling in my gut that Pamela Hute had a good shot of getting her music out to a huge audience all over the world. Well, the album came out on May 3rd to wonderful reviews and great sales and she hasn't looked back.

So tonight I thought I would take a slight look back, to 2006 when Pamela first got on My Space and the first track of hers I heard was Chocolate Soup. She has re-recorded it since, so this version could be considered something of a demo. But it's a great demo and a finished piece of work that, in my mind, needed no improvement. But then, this was the song that first got my attention and whatever flaws there may have been in it, certainly the artist heard and not me. I love this song and this version and I hope maybe you feel the same way.

Get her album if you haven't already. Hopefully she'll be touring the U.S. at some point.

(Pamela Hute - What Paris is sounding like these days)

I first discovered Pamela Hute during one of my browses on MySpace in 2006. Her first ep hadn't come out yet and her player had a demo track for Chocolate Soup, the first song of hers I ever heard.

I was hooked after the first ten seconds and I've been a fan ever since.

This track, Hysterical is off her new album Ghost (coming out in December), but she has a new ep called Turtle Tales From Overseas that has this track on it as well. It's available now and I would urge you to fall by her site and pick one up. Her previous ep's have sold out rather quickly, although they are available from iTunes.

Hute is French, but she splits her time between Paris and London and has been doing a lot of club and concert dates all over Europe the past year and several videos.

I have no idea if there are plans to bring her and her band to the States. It would be rather cool if they did (I think she just signed to Warners in France) - but as has happened so many times before, I'm not going to hold my breath.

But check this out in the meantime and visit her site.
