I must have known something was coming. Good thing I wrote most of this post before my birthday. Maybe I should have posted it then as well? Lately I’ve been on a certain vibe.

This is a musical month for me. I just wrote a post about new music I discovered from across the pond. Now due to the prompting of an infamous dino whose name I shall not say, mostly because I think I’ve done so a little too much already, I’m answering a Weekly Challenge. I posted one specifically for… Read More If I Take My Heart’s Advice

Since last week when I clicked on a video from a young artist on YouTube I got swept up in music from some fresh British voices. They’ve made happy with the tunes for years but they’re new to me. I’m content with my musical discoveries even if algorithms and all that had a lot to… Read More There’s a British Invasion Going On In My Head
The best music get’s down on its knees with you. It whispers to your shadows and lures them into the sun. Mishal Moore’s music is like that. Her songs leave me hopeful, reflective, and eager to dive into the uncertainty that comes with embracing life as it is even if I’m wishing for more. “How do… Read More An Artist’s Way: Mishal Moore on Creativity And Peace
I spoke of Gary Clark Jr. a little while back. I’m making good on my word by sharing more of him with you. Mr. Clark Jr. sounds like lessons I’ve learned and some I continue to struggle with. His music makes my soul nod and say “I told ya so”. He rocks hard and rolls with a strut. Don’t… Read More When My Train Pulls In

Lianne La Havas Lianne La Havas I love saying her name. It just does something to me. Sounds even better when she says it though. Perhaps it’s that London vibe. Is Your Love Big Enough? Her song asks. Hell yes it is! Her music, oh man. Her music snatches me by my locs and sings… Read More Is Your Love Big Enough? Mine Is!
The face of music ‘aint what it was. Please, I implore you. Check out The Skins. Just do it already. This youthful group has the soul of a rock band seasoned in dive bars and tour vans. Hope that wasn’t the case but you get what I’m saying. The musicianship, the vocals, the entire package is a… Read More DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE(IR) SKINS
Two guys and a girl, small group, mighty sound. Me and This Army are up there on my list of bands I really hope to hear more from in the future. Solid beats coupled with lead singer Courtney Hargrove’s vibrant and raspy vocals (which reminds me of a combo of Kelis and Katy Perry) make me want… Read More ME AND THIS ARMY
Been feeling this young woman since the Spring. Please check out Mishal Moore. She is awesome without the comparisons. However for reference sake, her voice has the jazzy, mellow sweetness of Jill Scott with some jamming folksie beats that make her sound a most delicious gumbo of musical flavors. Actually one of the tags on… Read More IHYF: MISHAL MOORE. IF YOU DON’T KNOW YOU BETTER GET ON IT!
