Description:
Oh Land is without question one of the most talked about new artists for 2011, landing on many critics' must-listen lists in advance of her highly anticipated debut album. The eleven song album is a mix of lavish loops and layered vocals that pound through on songs like the album s first single Sun of a Gun.
