New Music: George Maple – “Vacant Space”

10 Nov

Give a listen to Australian, George Maple’s “Vacant Space,” swoon! The songstress is getting set to drop her second EP December 1 and my guess is that 2015 is going to be a massive year for her. You may recognize her voice from Flume’s “Bring You Down” and now the Producer/DJ has returned the favor to drop some killer beats for this future star.

 

You can read more about the 24-year old Aussie via the New York Times HERE.

Now Playing: First Aid Kit cover Jack White’s – “Love Interruption”

1 Aug

I was a fan of the Swedish Sisters who make up First Aid Kit since the moment I heard their second album, The Lion’s Roar, became even a bigger fan when I saw them live for the first time and seeing them again this year at Bonnaroo, they were one of my favorite acts at the festival. Needless to say I’m hooked on these girls and after hearing this cover of Jack White’s “Love Interruption” which they performed on Australia’s triple j radio, I am even more in awe of thems. Listen below. Just WOW.

WOW! @AsgeirMusic covers @MilkyChance “Stolen Dance”

25 Jul

1. To me, Asgeir is a star in the making. This Icelandic singer-songwriter is absolutely brilliant. He has an incredible voice, beautiful songs and is flawless live.

2. Milky Chance’s song “Stolen Dance” is easily one of my favorite songs of 2014. Quite frankly I’ve fallen in love with the track and listen to it on repeat.

3. Asgeir just covered “Stolen Dance” for triple j and the segment “Like A Version.” Give a listen below and hear for yourself.

4. Come see Asgeir at Life is Beautiful, October 24-26 in Downtown Las Vegas.

Happy Friday!

New Music: Alt-J – “Left Hand Free”

7 Jul

I am an Alt-J fan, have been since I first heard them and will continue to be. I’m stoked to have them on the 2014 Life is Beautiful lineup and can’t wait for their performance. And even though they’ve called their new single “Left Hand Free” the “least Alt-J song ever,” I still dig it and don’t mind the departure from “their sound” and I for one think it’s going to open them up to a whole lot of new fans. Many are already saying it’s very Black Keys-esque and perhaps it is but again, I don’t mind. It’s a catchy tune, and to me it spans a several genres of music. If anything it takes it back to way before the Black Keys. Plus Joe Newman’s distinct voice is still present so how about we embrace it before rushing to judgement about the new album (it’s only one song), “This Is All Yours” which is due out on September 23.
