Artists Worth Checking Out indie music Ten Amazing Videos

Ten (plus five) amazing videos released in August 2019

We hope you liked our 15 Great Singles published earlier today.  Here is our list of 15 Amazing Videos released in August 2019.

We kick things off with a video from an artist more often considered part of the music business than a working musician.  Many of you subscribe to his podcasts, follow his twitter or have read his book, but in his alter ego as Copper Jones he is also part of an amazing collective with the multi-talented Ursa Major called Brassroots District.  Here is their latest video, a cute animation that reminds us of The Archies.

Next up is an acoustic video from the Dreamers for their current hit single, “Die Happy.”  Despite the somber tone, the song is very moving.  Let us know what you think.

Our third video brings back the classic 60’s rock sound, and extols us to “Like Everyone.”  Check out The Be Positives from the UK for your daily dose of positivity.

New Dialogue brings us our fourth video this month with their acoustic rendering of the single, “Fake Smile” from the Warehouse Series.  We love their songwriting skills which hold up to the stripped down acoustic challenge.

Video number five is an upbeat and positive pop/Americana tune from Mark Oblinger and we truly dig it.  Here’s “No Regrets,” and that’s how you’ll feel watching it.

Our next video is a progressive pop/rock song from Santa Cruz-based Watch me Breathe.  Check out their lyric video for “Don’t Think I Haven’t Thought About It.”

We next feature the latest from punkers The Dollyrots with the video for their song “I Know how to Party.”  We think they nailed it.

From punk rock we go to hard rock for the latest from Versus Me, a song entitled “Heavy Breathing.”  We think there will be a lot of that going on after viewing this one.

We totally change gears for the latest lyric video from Honey River, featuring the vocals of Holly Bisala.  We share in the sentiments of “I Don’t Want to Own You.”

Video number ten is a sweet “home movie” video from one of our favorites, Hannah Trigwell.  Check out “We’re all Gonna Die.”  It will give you a lot to think about.

We start our final five videos with the latest from LA Music Critic Award winner Fred Hostetler.  He used an amazing collage of subway graffiti for the visual of his protest song, “You Don’t Know What you Don’t Know.”  This one will definitely make you think.

Next up is the latest from LA’s own Beth Hart, who has truly found her niche in the blues world.  Here is her latest video for “Bad Woman Blues,” and we think she is the perfect protagonist.

Video number 13 features the groovy sound of Ex Norwegian for their song, “Life.”  This one deserves to be put on repeat while you relax and let the music take you away.

We really believe Darro when he says “You’re not Insane.”  However the video is impressive, and gives you a lot to consider.

We close out this week with the killer sound of psychedelic rockers Between Suns and their smashing “Sun Ra.”  If this one doesn’t pump you up, nothing will.
