Ten amazing videos released in December 2019

It’s been a couple of hectic weeks since we last posted, but we are ready to share our list of Ten Amazing Videos released in December 2019.  We will be back shortly with our Best Of lists for 2019, but in the meantime, please be patient.  We are doing the best we can.  Without further adieu, here we go.

Our first video was technically released on Black Friday, but we didn’t know about it until mid-December.  We have featured the band previously when we reviewed their album, and love their retro classic rock sound.  Here is Tombstones in Their Eyes with “Maybe Someday,” the title track.

Next up is the head-banging sound of Wilmette, as they sing about “Carol from HR.”  This band has all the makings of a long and successful career ahead of them, and we want you to jump on their bandwagon now.

Next up is an amazing guitar instrumental video by Brady Novotny, a true guitar hero, which has some of the most beautiful cinematography we have seen this year.  He shifts from rock guitar to flamenco acoustic, and even features the vocals of his wife, Jenn.  Feel the passion of his “Ancient Romance.”

One of our favorite K-POP bands, Monsta X, joins with Latin sensation, Sebastián Yatra, on a unique animated video for their monster hit, “Magnetic.”  We bet this one will be going on your favorites lists.

Our fifth video is a tongue in cheek PSA from the creative mind of Gabe Mouer, aka Patternist, entitled “Feature’s Dead, Angela.”  We love the upbeat sound of the band and the creative genius in the video.  Let us know what you think.

Let’s take a break from our list for a future hit.  We fell in love with Lisa Lambe when she was a part of Celtic Woman, and now that she’s gone solo, we love her even more.  Check out her latest song, “Tiny Devotions.”  We think you’ll fall in love with her too.

We start our second five videos with the latest from Earwig Studio artists Suitcase.  Check out their innovative video for “Super Knife” and jam out to their incredible indie rock sound.

Sexual harassment is still alive and the latest video from Lloren confronts the issue head-on.  Check out “Warriors.”

Next up is a stunning and visually breathtaking video from Canadian Tim Baker for his ballad “The Eighteenth Hole.”  This one is strangely soothing and we think it deserves your attention.  It was filmed in Newfoundland, and we suddenly want to visit.

Our ninth video is from The Weeklings, a Beatles tribute band, and features an intro by Peter Noone of Herman’s Hermits.  It is a remarkable cover of The Easybeats‘ classic tune, “Friday On My Mind,” and it brings back great memories of the 60’s.  You bet you’ll dig this one.

Our final video is a stylish lyric video that uses text balloons to convey the lyrics.  It is the latest from Irene Diaz about modern day dating trials and tribulations.  Check out “Another Observer.”

Artists Worth Checking Out indie music Singles and Videos Ten Great Singles

Ten great singles released in December 2019

Happy New Year!  As we wind things down at Indie Voice Blog in preparation for our hiatus, we are pleased to share these Ten Great Singles that didn’t make the cut for our weekly Monday Mashups in December.

First up is a band called Avalon Highway that mixes Americana  with vintage rock to create an impressive sound.  Check out their single, “Hope we Don’t die Young.”  We think you’ll be hearing a lot more from these guys in the future.

Next up is a trip-hop/electro-pop tune from Sympala that will get you pumped up to head into the new year.  Check out “For You,” and consider it our gift.

Our third single is for those who have disappeared into a “Blackhole.”  It features some stellar electronic sounds and introduces us to the power of LØZNINGER + KITOWSKI.  Check them out.

Next is another slice of Americana pie, with the amazing and harmonious sounds of The Wood Brothers.  The song is a “Little Bit Sweet,” and we can’t wait to taste the rest of their upcoming album which drops on January 24.  This one is definitely worthy of a lip smack.

Our fifth single is from Mosey, the solo project of Panic! At The Disco‘s Dan Pawlovich.  The song is very cynical but well done, as he explains that “If Christmas Didn’t Exist,” he wouldn’t mind at all.  While we don’t agree with his sentiments, the song is still well done and worthy of your consideration.

We kick off our second group of five singles with a modern-day folk tale from Dutch band SPIRITBOX.  This song has it all, and we are truly impressed with their talent.  Check out their clever tune “The Burner.”

Next up is the latest upbeat electronica instrumental tune from the duo known as Frere.  Although they call it “Often Wrong,” we don’t think listening to them qualifies as wrong.

Single number eight is a provocative and explicit tune from the Top 40 worthy sound of M. Maggie.  This one talks about physical love, and will keep your juices pumping.  It definitely makes us want to be “Real Close.”

Next up is a cover tune from Drea & the Marilyns of the New Zealand-based indie band Lips’ tune “Everything to Me.”  It is dark and rich and worthy of multiple listens.  Check her out.

We close out this month’s new singles with this high energy Celtic rock/punk tune from The Deadlys, which just happens to be their debut.  From the quality of “Work to be Done,” we don’t think it will be their last.  Enjoy and we’ll be back soon with our Ten Amazing Videos from December.
