“Highrises In Brooklyn” is a nice coffeehouse lounger that will surely please those disappointed with Regina Spektor’s latest album- or at least fill the gap until her next. Up-and-comer Kelley McRae is one of those likable, smart pop-folksters who is easy on the ears and makes for a very pleasant listen. She played at Barnes and Noble the other night in New York City, and I can’t think of a more perfect environment for her kind of music.
Sit back, relax, and let McRae’s calm voice and soothing melodies chill you out. And if “Highrises In Brooklyn” isn’t chill enough, head over to McRae’s MySpace and listen to the brilliant “Johnny Cash,” in many ways a superior song, a perfect addition to your bedtime playlist.

Great song!
What a lovely song. Thank you for constantly bringing us new talent to listen to.
I’m bummed I missed her perform at Barnes and Noble! That sounds awesome.
She has another free NYC show coming up soon. Details: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/4842653/NY/New-York-City/SingerSongwriter-Kelley-McRae-with-Beau-Jennings/
Thanks for the heads up Zach!
Big fan of this tune. thumbs up!
I almost fell asleep while listening to it…
i saw kelley live last october in nyc @ mercury lounge with derek james after a david ford performance…awesome two shows!!…went for david ford and stuck around for the late show of kelley and derek. great voice this girl has!
Like everything about this but her voice and the melodrama of the lyrics.
The folk quality is fantastic, but I got my fill of Sarah McLachlan in the 90s.
Sweet! This is a keeper!
