What I'm listening to at the moment...

So there's this band, We The Kings and they've been around since 2005. Well I like them. They're pretty cool. Their songs get in your head and well for me that's a great thing! Beats lift music anyday... I'm never going down, I'm never giving up, I'm never going to leave so put your hands up...


There's also We Are Scientists, well there are no words. But I actually have to tlak about them. My friend got me into them, thank goodness! Haha.
I think their greatest song is, Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt, from their album With Love and Squalor, it's so addictive!


There's also a band called 2:54, now I was surprised when I listened to them because I got a suggestion to do so, and I started thinking, yeah they sound cool, but I was expecting a male singer but instead it was two women, I was pleasantly surprised. Give them a listen...


I also really like Lana Del Rey at the moment, I hear her on the radio and I turn it up, yes some people think she's a little 'boring' and 'depressive' but if you listen to her album and her lyrics you'll be surprised at how up beat she can be. So tell me what you think about her. I really like 'Blue Jeans' it's my favourite.


There's also this band Don Broco, well they're pretty cool they're a bit like 'All american rejects' meet 'all time low' it's different but alternative rocky music, I like it. I like Dream Boy and Beautiful Morning the most.


Now there is also Benjamin Francis Leftwich, he has a soft voice that's really calming and the melody's in the music are just so soothing. I love Atlas Hands, it has so much meaning to the song, and it's enchanting to listen to.


I'm really getting back into Keane, their new album is on Spotify and I love listening to it, yes they sound like the old Keane, but it's so great to hear from Mr Chaplin again. The album is called Strange Land, I have a feeling that it's going to do well.


Finally the people I've listened to most recently are Lonsdale Boys Club, I saw them live when I went to see Olly Murs and I've liked them for ages when they were first starting out, they are great, and have such catchy songs, my favourite song of theirs has to be Hooligans and Hulagirls, then obviously Sista Shake and Light Me Up. 


So that's it, the latest and Artists I've been listening to recently.


Any suggestions for me to listen to any other music are welcome!

Branden Abeyta



So I had this tweet from a singer/songwriter so I did what I've promised, I went to his music site http://www.reverbnation.com/brandenabeyta and then I went to his website http://www.brandenabeyta.com/ and well I really like it.


Now I must admit the music he does, is a lot different to the usual stuff I'd listen to, but I like the difference.


Now I haven't really told you anything about him so here you go...


Branden Abeyta was born on the 29th of July, 1985, he is a singer/songwriter/ performer.
He has won TWO prestige's awards, includin the 2009 USA Song writing Competition Honourable Mention for his brilliant song 'Hypnotized' this song is in the genre of Rap.


His best award however is the 2010 USA Song Writing Competition 1st place award for his awesome song 'Retail' which was debuted as a street single in 2010.


Branden Abeyta was born in the 'rugged' neighbourhood of Commerce City, Colorado, now it's known for its hight crime rates in the 80's but thankfully Branden seems to have got away from that with the help of his music.


Branden Abeyta is a unique, intelligent, passionate and motivating musician, I strongly advise you to check him out, if you like R&B and Rap, but then again even if you don't because I liked it!
Help out the childhood dreamer reach all of his dreams and get him awards this year too!

These are a few of his songs, that you can get on iTunes...

'Hands Up'
'All Day Loving You'
'No Style Like Mine'
'Never Chasin''
'Retail'
And my personal favourite, 
'Spread My Wings and Fly'




So go on! Listen and love!

Jack is back...

Jack White is back and it's a very good thing!

So a couple of months ago I went out and got NME and it was all about Mr Jack White, and it informed me on the fact that he is back.


I got a suggestion of who to listen to, as you can probably guess I had to listen to Jack White's new album. I did. And I fell in love with his voice. I can't really explain it, it's a little husky, I do love it, although it does sort of sound like he's singing through a megaphone... Maybe that's it?


This is the track listing...
Missing Pieces
Sixteen Saltines
Freedom and 21
Love Interruption
Blunderbuss
Hypocritical Kiss
Weep Themselves to Sleep
I'm Shakin'
Trash Tongue Talker
Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy
I Guess I Should Go to Sleep
On and On and On
Take Me with You When You Go


I have to say my favourite one has to be 'Weep Themselves to Sleep' it's a catchy song and it has an amazing piano part in it.


So I think whoever reads this should definitely go and listen to JACK WHITE!


Oh and talking of NME, since I went to Foster The People, they've done a review of it from the night I went, my brother, my friend and I are in the picture :).


Any suggestions for music are very welcome with me, just comment. Thanks.

Mystery Jets

Have been around for 7 years and are my new love...

I can't get enough of the classic 'Two Doors Down' by this amazing band.

My brother recently went to see them live and I asked him to text me what he thought after he'd been, his exact words were... 'Mystery jets are AWESOME :D!' So, I'm guessing they are as good as they are, on the album as they are live (if not better) because he does know his music. :)

They've recently had a new album come out, if any of you don't know what it is it's called 'Radlands' check it out, you wont regret it :).

I know I'm late in liking them, but still they are great, their music is uplifting and enjoyable. I really do like them.

If anyone has a suggestion of a band, no matter old or new, that you want me to listen to then tell you how I feel about them please comment on a post and help me discover loads more music!!
