I just heard Ben Howard today but this song has really stuck with me. It's mellow but upbeat at the same time and a lot of fun to listen to. But what Englishman isn't? Plus you can't deny he's got some wild vibrato when he makes (what I think is) his attempt at a wolf noise. Awesome.

I just barely found this song while wirelessly browsing some random strangers iTunes at school today. I sure wish whoever it was would've stuck around for a little bit longer because they had tons of great stuff I've never heard of. This is really fun song with a catchy beat and some subtle use of syths and stuff. It makes me wanna do a little dance.

Lucky you! Today is a two song day! Sayde Price has been on my mind this weekend. Once again, a local artist out of Provo, UT. She's got a fantastic/unique voice that reminds me more of an incredible 9 year old girl than a twenty something year old. Her cd is available on iTunes and I love all of the songs on it. I really only chose this video because it was one of the best recordings of the audio. Check her out!


One of the easiest ways to get a song stuck in your head is to use it in a video you're editing. That's what happened to me with this great song from Fleet Foxes newest album Helplessness Blues. It's a great song and a really wonderful road trip/adventure/journey song. It's got a catchy beat, great guitars, and lots of oooooh's and ahhhh's.

Night Night is a local band out of Provo, Ut. Quite honestly I'm not sure if they even exist anymore but I remember they opened for another band I was seeing and I really enjoyed them. I think that was about a year ago now and they just popped into my head earlier this week so I looked them up and found only a couple songs. They're super mellow and the singers voice reminds me a lot of Ben Gibbard's. Some of their other songs (Maslow's Hierarchy for example) also use some electric beats and syths that I enjoyed.

Ray LaMontagne is a fantastic musician. He's got a wonderful unique, airy voice that I really like and a great folk sound. He's got so many options of great songs to post but I chose this one cause it's been on my mind for quite some time now.

As I was looking up this video I just figured out that Discovery is a side project of Vampire Weekend and Ra Ra Riots. That just makes me like it even more. This is the song I've been singing all day today. I really like the dramatic time change that happens a couple times throughout the song.

This one is actually one of twenty songs off of a mixtape by Mick Boogie & Terry Urban. "Viva La Hova" is a mashup mixtape of Coldplay and Jay Z. Separately, they are already two incredible artists/groups. Together, well, of course it's even better. If you enjoy this then look up the "Viva La Hova" mixtape and listen to the whole thing.

This is such a great mellow song. His voice is really great and different. This video as well is the first place that I heard the song after it was shared by a friend. So from a friend to a friend to a friend to who knows how many more friends; this one's to you from me.

I'm really diggin the use of the cello in this song. Super mello. And that's all I have to say about that.
