I Hope This Gets To You - The Daylights

I'm a hopeless romantic. I cry at weddings, sobbed at the end of The Notebook and love Jane Austin love stories. So its no surprise that the hopeless romantic in me is swooning at this video. Using The Daylight's new holiday song, "I Hope This Gets To You" this guy created a video that would hopefully go viral and get to his girlfriend away at school without sending it to her directly. With 20,000 youtube views in one day I'm sure it has. Good man... Full feature on The Daylights to come! You can buy the new single on iTunes.

The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name

I dare you to not do the little shoulder dance in your chair at work to this (err.. I mean at home because you are not checking out music blogs at work. Unless of course you work in music. Woop!) The Ting Tings are a British indie pop duo and I think they are kind of fabulous. For some reason when I look at them I see musical superheros... Anyone else or am I just weird?

Benjamin Winter - 5 Free Songs!

 


Benjamin Winter is a pretty cool guy who hails from my old stomping grounds on the California Central Coast. 
He's making his 5 new tracks free. 
Isn't that nice of him? I think so.

Punch Brothers - Reptilia

Have I mentioned before that I LOVE the Punch Brothers? Well I do. I may have once stalked them at work with my coworker so we could meet them... maybe. I love them so much that I'll be doing a full feature on them soon but I had to share a video I just saw of them covering a Strokes track. They are always brilliant when covering other artists. I heard them live doing a Radiohead tune. Not many can cover Radiohead but they rocked it. Love me some bluegrass!!
