Blogcritics Goodie Bag: Brian McKnight, Ruby Isle, Relient K, and James Morrison

Today in the Goodie Bag:

Slip into something comfortable, snuggle up next to your sweetie, and listen to the new single "What's My Name" from Brian McKnight.

Long before Dan Geller became an indie rock torchbearer by co-founding Kindercore and playing in the increasingly relevant electronic pop act I Am The World Trade Center, he was just a music-hungry skater kid. He spent most of his time in the high school parking lot, trading tapes with bud Mark Mallman, who would eventually go on to a successful career creating mind-blowing piano rock. These two über-influential music geniuses have reunited after all those years to present one of 2007's catchiest, most brilliant indie offering in only three tracks: Ruby Isle's Into the Black EP.

"Atom Bomb"

"In To The Black"

Pop-punk band Relient K is back with their fifth album in seven years cleverly titled, Five Score and Seven Years Ago, in stores March 6, 2007. Their highly anticipated new music video "Must Have Done Something Right" premiered this week on Yahoo. The Ohio natives say the new album is their happiest record to date, combining up-beat catchy love songs and their quirky sense of humor. Soccer in the library... whee!

James Morrison's new album Undiscovered will be released in the US on March 13. He has already sold 1.6 million copies of the album worldwide. Check out his series of webisodes.

Also, take a listen to Morrison's single "You Give Me Something."
