LISTEN: “Return To” by #1 Dads featuring Tom Snowdon

#1 DADS (formerly Dads) is the solo moniker of Tom Iansek, the front man of alt-pop band Big Scary. According to the#1 DADS bio, the project is a way for Iansek to remain creative between Big Scary album cycles and touring, and to find a place for songs that would remain homeless outside of his more well-known outfit. I discovered #1 Dads on THE RIPE COMPILATION VOL 2  … Continue reading LISTEN: “Return To” by #1 Dads featuring Tom Snowdon

LISTEN: “Wrong Cloud” by Street Joy

STREET JOY is duo Jason DeMayo on lead vocals, guitar, and bass and Scott Zimmerman on drums and backup vocals. What I like about “Wrong Cloud” is the distorted voice and that easy and fun vibe of the song. It’s a very Beatles sounding song without ripping off The Beatles…aka head bopping, hand clapping fun!

EARGASM OF THE WEEK: “Centerfold” by Mothxr

I stumbled onto MOTHXR via Soundcloud’s recommended tracks and I must say I completely fell for them hook, line, and sinker. The song “Centerfold” makes me think of The Church and The Smiths and I want to own everything they have released! Check it out below.

LISTEN: “Dig It Out” by Natalie McCool

What I like about Natalie’s voice is that I imagine it to be the voice of that transition between the seasons of spring and summer. Light and airy, yet bright and forceful. Natalie hails from London and won Female Artist of the Year at Liverpool Music Awards. Check out her song “Dig It Out” below.

LISTEN: “First Things First” by Neon Trees

I don’t care what anyone thinks, I really dig NEON TREES. Though I dug their first album HABITS, their sophomore album, PICTURE SHOW was by far more superior. It was an album I could listen to non-stop and over and over and then POP PSYCHOLOGY  came out and it topped PICTURE SHOW. Their new single “First Things First” is just a great little empowering anthem and that makes … Continue reading LISTEN: “First Things First” by Neon Trees
