Rei - Orb

Heard in Tower Records, Shibuya. Brightly energetic guitar-y music (the liner notes list the specific guitar she plays on each track) that skips across rock, pop, indie and even blues, and doesn't allow its (ample) quirks or the occasional cutesy touch to get in the way of the momentum created by the songs themselves. Sounds (a bit) like KT Tunstall, but peppier.
