Artists Worth Checking Out indie music Monday Mashup Singles and Videos

Monday mashup 2019: vol. 37

Well, Pearl Harbor Day has come and gone and we’re heading down to the final couple of weeks before my big #61.  So much to be thankful for as we head down the holiday homestretch, especially for the chance to be around my brother and his family, as well as my best friend and wife, Chelle.  Let’s celebrate the season with some great new singles and videos.

NEW SINGLES

Our first single is from a group with the auspicious name of The Black Mariah Theater.  They have a wonderfully fresh sound mixing soulful lyrics with a classic rock beat, and their first single is called “Got no Luck.”  We don’t believe that describes this band, who we think are in it to win it.

Next up is another fresh one from Pablo Paddy.  Mixing Latin grooves with its lyrics, their first single, “Lost Holiday,” is sure to please and deserves to be put on repeat.

Single number three is entitled “River” and it’s blowing in as part of the new album The Sundown on January 20.  In the meantime, check out West Wind and get ready for some awesomeness to drop next month.

Next up is a Russian band called On-the-Go.  Their single “High” features the sweet and soaring vocals of Naadia, and we sincerely love it.  This song is so uplifting and perfect for the holiday season and all year round.  Check it out.

Our final single this week should get your Monday off to a great start.  Here’s “One of These Days” from Thrillhouse, with its obvious influence from Michael Jackson‘s Thriller.

NEW MUSIC VIDEOS

Our first video this week is a lyric video from Bambara for their song “Sing me to the Streets.”  This one has some meaty lyrics which go well with his deep bass vocals.  Check it out.

We have totally fallen for the romantic and stirring vocals of Rookes, and she has outdone herself with her latest video for “New Lovers.”  We could listen to her silky smooth vocals for days.  Check out this new one and we think you’ll be hooked as well.

For our third video, we wanted to get you in the Christmas spirit.  Here’s Cassandra with a video that truly sums it up for us, “I Love Christmas.”

We follow that up with a parody video from  Psychostick of the Rob Zombie tune /video “Dragula.”  Here’s their tongue in cheek tune “Zombie Claus.”  Hopefully this one doesn’t give you nightmares.

We close out this week’s article with a wonderful cover of “All I Want for Christmas is You” from the creative minds of Walk off the Earth.  May you get everything you need this holiday season.

Artists Worth Checking Out Ten Amazing Videos Women in Entertainment

Ten amazing videos released in December 2018

We hope you enjoyed our Ten Great Singles article yesterday, which we are following up with our Ten Amazing Videos today.  We had a wonderful New Year’s Day, watching the Rose Bowl parade and then heading off to the theater for the IMAX showing of Aquaman – what an amazing movie.  That was the best superhero movie we have ever seen.  Marvel could learn a few things from DC.

Our first video this month is from one of our favorite indie country bands, the Redhead Express.  It is also one of the most patriotic videos we have ever seen, and a fitting tribute to one of their major influences, Walk Off the Earth, after the death of Mike Taylor, The Beard Guy.  Here’s their cover of “Home We’ll Go.”

Next up is a blues rock smoker from The Spear Shakers, featuring the incredible guitar licks of Kelly Richey and perfect drums by Sherri McGee.  We think this one creates the perfect start to this “back to work” day.  Enjoy “Something’s Going On.”

Our third video is a beautiful cover of the Christmas classic, “O Holy Night” by the alter-ego of the Redhead Express.  Check out the beautiful cinematography and the stunning vocal harmonies of the PaperDolls, who recently performed at the White House Christmas party.

Our next video is from an up and coming hip-hop artist named Strick, a native of North Carolina now residing in Las Vegas.  Check out his latest track, “Slime Neighbors.”

Video number five comes to us via Send to Media for electro-pop artist Kitzi.  It is her debut release and we think it proves this young lady has a future in the business.  Check out “armadilla.”

Our second five kicks off with the soaring vocals of Milo Milone and her German neo-soul/R&B band Rhonda.  Set in a bar, various people sing Karoake to their single “I Couldn’t Say Yes.”  We’re happy to say yes to this amazing band.

We follow that one up with the latest from Justin Salter.  We love the comedy and the sound of this video, which features the lovely Bella Muse, and think you will likewise enjoy “You and Me.”

Our eighth video features the dreamy and sweet vocals of Maggie Lindermann and her incredible song, “Would I.”  If the question refers to whether we want more from this artist, the answer is a resounding yes.

Our next video also features stunning cinematography and the sweet sound of Australian Klara Zubonja.  We love the intricacies of the music on “The Winds of Life,” and think you will too.  Please let us know what you think about his artist.

We close out this month with the latest from another Australian artist, Cap Carter.  We love his vocals and the beautiful cinematography of “Thrill.”  Definitely check him out.
