indie music Monday Mashup Singles and Videos

Monday mashup 2021 (vol 7)

Happy Presidents’ Day!  Here in Oklahoma, we’re in the middle of an artic wave that has plunged our thermometers down as low as -10 degrees.  We can’t wait for next week when the temps start inching up again.  We hope you’re not freezing too bad.  To keep you warm, here are some new singles and music videos.

NEW SINGLES

Our first single this week is from one of our favorite indie country stars, the one and only Risa Binder.  This one belongs on country radio and is the perfect song to kick off Valentine’s week.  Binder’s sweet voice, combined with the perfect harmonies of Benji Harris, truly make this one feel “A Lot Like Home.”

In celebration of Black History Month, we present one of LA’s premier black voices, Chris Pierce, with his latest inspirational anthem, “Young, Black and Beautiful.”  Let the words of this song spur us on to true social justice.

Our third single is from Matt Hartke and reminds us to never give up on our “American Dreams.”  His voice is as sweet as honey with a homey Pop/Americana sound, and we think this one is a true keeper.

Back when we lived in LA, an indie country band was just starting to get a lot of attention from GoCountry and its predecessor, KZLA.  That band, featuring Dani Rose and Sofie Lynn, has quietly become a household name and we think their latest, “Love Hangover,” is their best song yet.  Expect to hear more of Honey County soon on Country Radio.

We close out this week’s new singles with another great song from the iconic BINX, perfect for repeated listens not only on Valentine’s Day, but year-round.  Check out “La La Love,” and let its good vibes get your week off to a great start.

NEW MUSIC VIDEOS

This week’s music videos kick off with the latest from Blue Élan Records artist Roan Yellowthorn.  This one is a quirky tune called “Little Love,” and we think it deserves a lot a love.

Next up is another Blue Élan artist, Chelsea Williams, with a performance video of her amazing Americana song, “Cornerstone.”  If this one doesn’t make you a fan, we don’t know what will.

Icons Creating Evil Art is fast becoming one of our favorite creators of indie music, and the latest from their NuGoth artist Bonander continues their tradition of giving a platform for breakthrough artists to present their talents.  Check out “Gone in the Wind.”

Last week we shared the lyric video and this week we have their official music video of Lucy & La Mer‘s soon to be mega hit, “Roller Coaster.”  We think you’ll love this one.

We close out this week with the latest psychedelic video from the mind of Huron John.  This one has a danceable beat and a style that is all his own.  Enjoy the sheer brilliance of “Arthur,” the first single off his new album.

Artists Worth Checking Out Reviews Ten Amazing Videos Women in Entertainment

Ten amazing videos from March 2018

Every Monday we bring you news from the indie arts world, as well as new singles and music videos.  Unfortunately, we receive so many requests that we are unable to accommodate everyone.  We decided to create a monthly listing of singles and music videos we thought were worthy but didn’t have space for in our Monday Mashup.  Here is our list of music videos for the month of March.

First up is a delightful indie rock lyric video from Krantz for their single “Run Away.”  This one is guaranteed to get your blood pumping and get you moving.  Enjoy.

Our second featured video is from a group that we recently reviewed, and also featured in our Ten Great Singles from February 2018 article.  Here is their lyric video for “My Force” from Freedom Baby.

Next up is a very retro sounding video from Jessica Risker.  The song is quirky, as is the video, so enjoy this one for “Cut my Hair.”

Another artist we recently reviewed was Ghost & the City.  Their video for “Living Room” is visually stunning, while the song is an amazing creation, with horns to die for and vocals that create shivers down your spine.  Enjoy.

Number five for the month of March comes from Bonander, who encourage us to “Quit Everything and Become a Princess.”  The retro disco beat will definitely get your blood pumping.  Check out this fun video.

For our next video, we travel to Norway, where Gundelach and ARY have created this stunning visual for their song “Past the Building.”  We love the entire vibe of this one, and think it definitely has legs.

Our seventh video is from Common Deer, a mellow chill band that offers us “Glass (Redux).”  Put this one on to relax and feel the tensions just melt from your body.

Next is another chill video for “Tuesday” by Hurt Parade.  The cinematography is amazing, as is the song, which features the line “Anywhere I want to be, as long as you’re with me.”

Stephen Michael Murphy encourages us to “Take a Trip,” his homage to the State of Colorado after they voted to legalize marijuana.  It’s a rocking, southern blues masterpiece, and the lyric video is pretty cool as well.  Let us know what you think.

Last but not least for this month is from the amazing Grace Blue, who will wow you with her video for “Nowhere to Go.”  We think this is the perfect video to close out this edition of Ten Amazing Videos.  We’ll see you next month.
