Artists Worth Checking Out indie music Singles and Videos

Monday mashup 2019: vol. 35

We’ve reached our final Monday Mashup of November, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  Please take time this year to be thankful for family and friends, and for our military who fought for our freedom to celebrate.  Enjoy these new singles and music videos and we’ll be back soon with our Ten Great Singles and Ten Amazing Videos released in the month of November.

NEW SINGLES

Our first single this week comes from Alexandria Maillot.  This one has a great alternative rock vibe with powerful lyrics.  Check out “Someone to Keep you Warm.”

Our next single combines the sound of two of our favorites – Whitney Houston and Patti Labelle – to form a sweet and smooth jam called “Out of my ooo.”  We simply love the sound of Jessica Wilde and can’t wait to see what comes next.

We introduced you to the sweet and sensual sound of Emmrose last month, and she’s back with an even better song this month.  Here’s “Hopeless Romantics” for your consideration.  We think this artist definitely has “the goods.”

Single number four has a harder edge and features the dynamic London duo called Revolvers.  According to the title of their single, we are living in “Confusing Times,” and we couldn’t agree more.

Our final single, “She” comes from Richmond, Virginia band She.   Their sound is almost experimental rock but with a touch of prog, and we like it.  We think you will too.

NEW MUSIC VIDEOS

Our first video features the powerful and strong vocals of Rookes on her song, “Salvage.”  This is by far one of the best songs we have heard this year.  What do you think?

Back in the late 80s, most of us loved a band called the Spin Doctors, composed of Chris Barron and Eric Schenkman.  When the band broke up, Barron began pursuing an indie career as a singer-songwriter, while Schenkman continue his mastery of the guitar.  Well, Schenkman is back with his latest song, “Agent Orange Blues,” and we are glad he is.  It’s a total departure from the Spin Doctors.  Let us know what you think.

Video number three comes from Scotland’s gem, Baby Taylah, and is a visually stunning video that will appeal to anyone who loved and misses Game of Thrones.  Check out “Reclaim.”

We last featured Matt LeGrand back in September.  He returns with Mexican rapper Mestiza and delivers the smooth jam “I’ve Been Watching You.”  This one is guaranteed to get you in the mood.

We close out this edition of Monday Mashup with a beautiful cover video from Christafari of the Christian song “Way Maker,” which features the soulful reggae sound of Avion Blackman.  We love the reggae groove and the lyrics.  Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
