  • Oh, I love music posts...especially bc I'm musically challenged.

    My obsession right now is Marc Broussard. He's a local boy from Louisiana, but is gaining popularity everywhere. He's a white boy with a lot of soul. Seriously, his voice doesn't match how he looks. The video pretty much looks like some kid lip syncing. So good!

    Lorde.  I can't believe she's only 16.  I'm on a girl-artist phase, in my rotation I've also got ZZ Ward, Kate Nash, and Imaginary Cities.

  • DISCLAIMER: I do not in any way keep up with what is new or popular as far as music. Also, I typically listen to country music. *gasp*

    However, I really love The Avett Brothers right now. I may be way late on this, but I think they are great. The only reason I even know who they are is due to some confusion on the part of Pandora Radio.

  • Not new, but I've been listening to Donavon Frankenreiter nonstop this week.  He's kind of a funkier, funner version of Jack Johnson.
  • Mine is the entire Calling-Birds album by Satelitte


    I love this album too. I actually saw them when they opened for someone here this past Spring, and I was SOOO disappointed! Only the singer and guitarist were there, so it was basically an acoustic show, which is lame on songs like Say the Words, when the drum beat is my favorite part!

    I have been obsessed with their latest song Another is Waiting.
  • Heartbeat by Kopecky Family Band

    They played with DH's band once two or three years ago at a hole in the wall venue but they've actually gained a lot of traction since then.  Listen to the iTunes version, not the one on Leno though.  It's SUPER catchy.

    The Beauty of Who You Are is my FAVORITE song of his. Though I love everything. We went see him perform at the House of Blues in New Orleans. Seriously, one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

    I really love them too.
    I only know of them because they worked with G. Love on his last album.

    And "Let Her Go" by Passenger 

    My new country kick continues with Luke Bryan's new album

    And of course, Matt Nathanson's new album. These lyrics kill me:

    On the outskirts of the wreckage, 
    Out in the sun under the golden gate, 
    Annie said she was waiting
    For the next one to leave.

    She had a masters degree
    In disappointment, 
    That's what she said to me, 
    Laughed when she said it, 
    Flat on our backs in the grass
    Out at chrissy field.

    My life's a movie.
    My whole life's a movie, 
    If movie's made you wanna
    Jump off of a bridge.
    She said 'I got one who moves me
    And one who sees through me.
    All I really want is a kiss.

    Annie's always waiting for the next one to leave
    But she's right on time for me.

    I got the right words
    From the wrong mouths.
    Hurricanes crashing hard
    Like I'm the deep south.
    Well, it always looked like
    Dry land out there to me.

    She said, my mother, 
    She taught me how to doubt myself.
    Now, she lives in my head
    Like it's a tree house.
    I see her clearer in the mirror
    More and more each day.

    I was only kidding when I said I like a fight.
    I was only kinda kidding when I said I like a fight.
    I was kinda kidding when I said I like a fight, 
    But sometimes you gotta start 'em yourself.
