Monday mashup 2021 (vol 3)

Happy MLK Day!  Hope you had a great weekend and are ready for some great new music, including the latest video from multi-LA Music Critic Award winning band, The Spider Accomplice.  Let’s get going.

NEW SINGLES

We kick things off this week with the latest from country/ Americana powerhouse Peggy James.  We think it is the perfect song for this new year, and we pray that our “Guardian Angel” will direct our paths during 2021,

Next up is England-born rocker Tommy Newport.  Check out his groovy tune called “Yellow Line.”  This one will definitely get your toes tapping.

Our third single comes from the band Welshly Arms and should be considered THE anthem for 2021.  The song speaks of hope and change and we are totally inspired after listening.  Let’s join the band, knowing that “I Will Overcome.”

Next up is the first new “Christian Rock” we have heard in quite some time.  We love the way they have brought the story of the Book of Exodus to life, and remind us of one of the pioneers of Christian rock, Petra.  Check out The Word66 and their single, “On the Way to the Promise Land.”

Our final single this week is from the intriguing pop band KITTEN.  They ask the simple question, “Do U Still Love Me?”  After hearing this song, the resounding response is “Yes.”

NEW MUSIC VIDEOS

As promised, here is the brand new music video from one of our all-time favorite bands, the multi-talented and multi-awarded alternative rock band The Spider Accomplice.  This one is more of a power ballad than their usual style, and we will definitely “Keep” playing this one.

We love great Americana music because of the stories they tell, and this new one from Shannon Clark and the Sugar is one of the most powerful we’ve heard since “Whiskey Lullaby.”  Watch this powerful video and let the words of “Carry Me” sink in.

Our third video is courtesy of Angela Leese, the drummer for one of our favorite punk bands, Taco Mouth.  She likewise shines on this song by punk/new rock guitarist Jax Hollow which will truly rock your socks, and leave you with a desire to “Say my Name.”

Next is the latest from Valleyheart, a band with a true classic rock sound that reminds us of the 90’s.  The song is called “T.I.K.,” which is an acronym for Thoughts I Keep.  Listen carefully to the words of the song and rock out to the beat.

Our final video this week is “Francine” from People Club, a band we introduced you to back in October 2019.  This one is equally as different, and we invite you to check it out.

Artists Worth Checking Out indie music Monday Mashup Singles and Videos

Monday mashup 2020 (vol 17)

Wow, what a week!  Oklahoma got hit with a huge ice storm last week that knocked out power for a lot of people, and made work almost unbearable.  We worked nearly 60 hours and our sales were up 150%, causing us to run out of just about everything, including our patience.  So glad things are beginning to return to normal, and we have a little time this morning to post our long overdue article.  Check out these great new singles and music videos.

NEW SINGLES

First up this morning is the latest blues masterpiece from LA Music Critic Award winner Brigitte Purdy.  She’s on the “Memphis Hotline” and we’re sure glad we got to participate.  Purdy only gets hotter with each new song.  This one is a true keeper!

From the blues we switch to R&B, and the incredible sound of up and coming artist Christine Nguyen.  She compiles a lot in her song “Finding Happiness,” and we’re ready to join her in her journey.  This one is perfect for today’s election.

Speaking of the election, Wildwood Franklin has a political winner with his latest Americana/blues classic, “American Trump Card.”  It’s a reminder to all of us to get out and vote if we want to change the direction our country is heading.

Who doesn’t like an 80’s throwback?  Katie Wood goes back and resurrects that iconic sound in her latest tune, “Where Have You Been?”  We hope she’s around for a long time.

Our final single this week comes from rocker Jacqueline Tucci, who invites us to come “Home.”  We love the classic sound of this track and think we have not heard the last from this young Toronto artist.

NEW MUSIC VIDEOS

With election day upon us, the amazing LA singer/songwriter queen Kris Angelis reminds us we need to find “My Quiet,” and not let the anxieties and cares of this world overcome us.  We wholeheartedly agree.

Next up is another LA-based group of incredible musicians, Lucy & La Mer.  This time around they bring us the upbeat and positive song, “Better Than I was Before.”  Let’s take their advice and be our best.

Nikki O’Neill is a rising Americana artist who just relocated from LA to Chicago.  In her latest video, she reminds us that the “World is Waiting” for the power of love to rise up.  Let’s lead the charge.

Time for a little fun.  Here is a cool punk rock video from New Jersey band Boy Blue which features the vocals of Jaret Reddick of Bowling for Soup.   They are looking for fun with the “Ghost of Saturday Night,” and we bet they will find what they’re looking for.

Our final video this week comes from LA female-fronted band Kitten, who remind us of the days when “Angelina” was breaking into the movie business.  This one is sure to get your toes tapping and your feet on the dance floor.  Have a great week.
