For Listeners of Snow Patrol

Now, who doesn't like Snow Patrol?

Recently, I have discovered a band who has a similar sound to Snow Patrol. They are Satellite State. 

Listen Here

Also, their EP is on iTunes

Anyway, Satellite State has a lot of talent. Their music is very fun to listen to. Also, their lyrics are very genuine and meaningful. So far, my favorite song of is "Lights Out". It is a rock song with a Coldplay sound. Awesome sound/style, it's something you would jam out to in the car. I'd rate their EP a 9/10, only because I think they still need to find that one thing that separates their music from the rest. The thing that really makes their band stand out. 

Give Thanks,

Abbey

New Chase Coy Album

Chase Coy's new album, Look How Far We've Come, was released today!

For those of you that don't know, Chase Coy genre is specified as "Folk" but more importantly he is really soft rock. His voice is very calm and will calm you down from any mood.

Best Kept Secret

J Minus is an alternative band from Seattle, that does not receive enough credit for their music. When I listened to their albums, Sun and Moon and Under the Blue, I was hooked. Their music is similar to the well known band, City and Colour, and musician, Howie Day. The song, "A Mile Away", reminds me especially of Howie Day. I would give the album Sun and Moon a full 10/10 rating. Their album as acoustic and alternative on it, which is a good blend suiting your every mood. You know how you could never get sick of Goo Goo Doll's songs? Well, that is how I feel about J Minus' songs. So far, my favorite on the album is "Anywhere".  The beat is very catchy and I love the guitar in it. Their album is already on iTunes, so go download it!

Anyway, if you want to listen to full songs, check out their myspace page

Womanizer?

Yes, Jordan Johnson looks like one in his self created music video, Womanizer featuring himself. He added himself in certain parts. The singing goes with the video and the lyrics couldn't be more perfect. And he doesn't look too bad himself...

Jonathan Clay Music from TrueAnthem

FREE ALBUM

Go check out Jonathan Clay's myspace , www.myspace.com/jonathanclay because he is offering a free download of his Acoustic Sessions album. The greatest part about it is he is really good! He is an acoustic/ indie artist. 

You may have heard his song: "Back than Good" it was on the hills!

Also, I was curious as to why he was giving an entire album out for free. This was my question:

Me: Hey Jonathan, I just wanted to let you know I have loved your music since I heard it on the HIlls and I am happy to support your free album. I can't help but wonder why you are giving an entire album for free. Why did you decide to do this?

Jonathan: Hey Abbey, Levi's is making it possible to give away my album. They sponsored me. Thanks for asking.

And because I want to make this as easy as possible, I posted the free album on this blog.

fan of electronic?

watch out for CHRISTIAN SCHULZ

www.myspace.com/christianschulz

is an electro/pop artist unlike anything you have ever heard. He is so different, it's so intriguing on what else this aspiring artist can come up with. He is not quite electronic, and not all the way pop. He has established a new genre for himself, unlike anything I have ever heard. If you don't think Christian is unique, please let me know of another artist that sounds similar. I am very curious.

Oh and he already has an EP on iTunes titled Limbs.

including songs-

"Scars"

"You're Not There"

"Just a Fool"

give new music a chance.

New Myspace

Hey guys, I'm trying to get some viewers so I decided to make a myspace. The URL is www.myspace.com/mixedtapemusic1

the more viewers I get, the more updates I will do.

Listen up Matt Nathanson fans

So, I came across this Facebook ad that read, "For listeners of Matt Nathanson". So I clicked on it and it brought me to a myspace. www.myspace.com/bradpassons. Then I discovered the next Matt Nathanson...Brad Passons. 

He sounds so much like him, it's unbelievable. Anyone who says they are a MN fan will love Passons. I want this guy to get BIG, so everyone needs to listen to his songs on myspace and get him recognized!

Who would have thought, a great musician discovered through a banner ad on Facebook..

Free Download on iTunes

The weekly free download in iTunes is a song by The Script. It's called "Before the Worst".

It is from their new CD, The Script, and the song is great. It's worth the 30 second wait to download. 

Here's an excerpt:

"We were sitting with our backs against the world

Saying things that we thought but never heard

Who would have thought it would end up like this?

Where everything we talked about is gone

And the only chance we have of moving on

Is trying to take it back before it all went wrong"

They are one of my new interests. Enjoy!

new today:

"Heartless" (single)- Kanye West. This song is the same style as "Love Lockdown". He is moving away from the average rap song and adding his own style.

"You Belong With Me" (single) - Taylor Swift. Man, she has a new single out like everyday. The contents of her new album will not be a surprise. I'm shocked she released her singles so quickly.

The Script- The Script. I love this album. "We Cry" is a very interesting, emotional song. Check it out.

Play- Brad Paisley. I've always liked Paisley.

Twilight Soundtrack- many artists. This soundtrack has a variety of good music on it. The movie is going to be insane.

Between the Lines: Sara Bareiles Live at the Fillmore- Sara Bareilles. With this album everyone can see how truly talented she is.

"I Don't Care" (Cobra Starship Suave Suarez Remix) single- Fall Out Boy. Kind of cool, I guess.

"G.L.O.W" (single + one) - Smashing Pumpkins. Classic SP. Awesome.
