What do you think of the Female Artist of the Day [49]?

ARTIST: Anna-Catherine Hartley

- 1 album as Uffie

GENRE: Electropop, Synthpop, Dance pop, Hip Hop

FACTOIDS:

- She was born in Florida, raised in Hong Kong, and spent her teenage years in France.

- She has made several guest appearances on tracks, including by Justice, Mr. Oizo, and Steve Aoki.

HOW I FOUND HER: Stumbled across a blog that was arguing how Ke$ha was just a rip off of Uffie. Listened to the album, didn't hear any similarities and thought Uffie was just weird at the time. She's grown on me though.

ALBUM I RECOMMEND FIRST: 'Sex, Dreams & Denim Jeans'

Feel free to listen to all three, or pick the one that looks best! Whatcha think?

"ADD SUV (ft. Pharrell Williams)" from 'Sex, Dreams & Denim Jeans' (2010)

"Illusion of Love" from SD&DJ

Update:

Also for anyone who is interested, she did a cover of Siouxie and the Banshees' "Hong Kong Garden".

    I really like her! I wasn't too crazy about the first song but "Neuneu" got to me and I like "Illusion of Love' the best. Actually, I think she's much better than Kesha...thanks so much for posting this!

    well I am a Siouxie and the Banshees fan. the cover was okay but I also could not get into this artist. I just don't find anything unique or special about her. it just sounds like to me a female talking over some mediocre electronic work. I guess on the bright side is I would much prefer listening to this artist rather than Lady GaGa. I would choose just about anything else over Lady GaGa. Later Vicky :D

    She's okay. There are elements of Ke$ha in the vocal delivery style on some of her songs but it's not a style Uffie pioneered or anything, plus Ke$ha added the wonderful drunk slut angle.

    Sorry I could not get into her, it might just be the time of day. But sorry not doing anything for me at this time. Maybe I'll give another listen a bit later on.

    take care

  • Yes, my friend introduced me to her about two weeks ago..and to be honest I was not digging ADD SUV when he showed me but now I gotta admit it's pretty damn catchy! And I quite enjoyed that Souxie cover ;)
