(Downtown)

Release Date: Jan/Feb
The Skinny: This stylish New Yorker's debut EP Self-Taught Learner was an eye-opening slab of charged dance-rock. (A cover of Hot Chip's "Ready for the Floor"was a highlight.) Saves the Day's Eben D'Amico was Trullie's collaborator on much of that record, but with him no longer in the fold, famed producer and ex-Suede guitarist Bernard Butler is picking up the slack.
Fast Fact: Lissy Trullie's real name: Elizabeth McChesney. That wouldn't look nearly as cool on a T-shirt.WATCH:Lissy Trullie, "Self-Taught Learner"
