BAND OBSESSION: LORD HURON

My current band obsession is Lord Huron from Los Angeles. I've been on Lord Huron kick since I saw them play at Motr Pub in OTR back in September for the Midpoint Music Festival 2012. I really didn't know much about them other than I just recognize the name from a station on the radio. I was actually suppose to see a totally different band that night, but I kind of lost my group of friends I was with so I went to see them instead. I'm glad I did. By far one of my favorite performances from that festival. Just about everyday I've been listening to "Lonesome Dreams", their first album, on repeat. They have that type of sound that makes you want to hop in your car, put their album on and go on an adventure. To be honest, I couldn't pick just one song that I like. Each song off the album has a beautiful melody that I can't help getting lost into. I always find myself dancing around the house whenever I listen to them.

I'm definitely a fan of Lord Huron. 

The video above is from their performance on NPR's Tiny Desk. Set list includes: "She Lit A Fire", "Time To Run", "Lonesome Dreams", and " Ends Of The Earth".
Hope you all enjoy!

BAND OBSESSION: JAPANDROIDS

My recent band obsession is Canadian rock duo Japandroids. They are one of those bands that you kind of have to listen to a couple of times until you realize how awesome they really are. They have been around since 2006, with two albums, "Post-Nothing" and "Celebration Rock".  My favorite off the 2nd album "Celebration Rock" is "The House That Heaven Built". Video of the song posted above. They have a punk-rock kind of sound and their music makes you wanna get up and dance. 

If you haven't heard of Japandroids, you should totally take a minute or two and listen to them. You will not be disappointed. 

BAND OBSESSION: IMAGINE DRAGONS

My newest band obsession is Las Vegas, Nevada based band, Imagine Dragons.

When I first heard, "It's Time" I fell in love with the song right away. Everything from the 

amazing beat to the lyrics that make you wanna sing a long to. This song is amazing and I can't stop listening to it. They have an EP out called "Continued Silence" with 5 more amazing songs including "On Top Of World" and "Radioactive". Their full album "Night Visions" comes out September 4th, 2012. If you haven't heard of Imagine Dragons, you should totally check them out, because they are a band that should be on your music radar. 

Hope you all are having an awesome Tuesday!
