worth a listen

So, I am a massive Kooks fan, and with the new singles, I've had a reaction that's been a bit-- lukewarm.. but, I finally had the opportunity to sit and fully embrace the new EP, and the minute I heard the first few seconds of "Hold On", I had to tell myself that exact phrase, hold on

It has such a throwback feel, I felt transported, and honestly this made me think of something I might hear from someone like Mayer Hawthorne, but The Kooks, no way-- but it works, it really works, I never figured you'd hear such a nice falsetto from Pritchard but, his falsetto is surprisingly not..lukewarm.

april discoveries

alright, so I am going to make it a point to share new artists, well not even all the time will they be new necessarily, just new to me, but I'll make it a point to share some of my personal discoveries with you all, I've been working on this for about a week so here we go

first

St Paul & The Broken Bones

So yes, I know how unbelievably late I am on this group, especially since they hail from Birmingham and I stay in Alabama? I really can't believe this dudes vocals, I love the Southern soul influence and this is, when I first heard it my mouth kind of dropped open, yes, I know this is nothing new but, refreshing nonetheless.
