Be warned: once this song gets in your brain….. you are done. It is perfect on so many levels.
Not only is it super catchy it is very well written. Simple words that we can all relate to.
Australian act I would really like to come to Vancity.
I can’t recall when I first heard of this indie band from the UK. I am Kloot were formed in Manchester to be precise. I love lead singer John Bramwell’s distinctive voice and their moody and heart wrenching lyrics go straight to centre of my dark and twisty side.
While they have been around since the early 2,000′s, their latest effort – Sky at Night – was nominated for the Mercury Prize (Industry voted top Brit/Irish Albums). This song is not only my favourite off of that album, I am also a fan of the complete and total simplicity of this video. I think the guy in it is from Dr Who? Irregardless, enjoy!
No words or explanation needed. Except to say that I am heartbroken that I will not be seeing Bon Iver when they tour Vancouver in the Fall. Mother fuck is all I have to say. One day. One day.
A few months ago, one of my very good friends (who sadly lives across the other side of the country) sent me a link to concert that was coming up here in Vancouver. That band was The Civil Wars and the concert was last weekend. And it was awesome.
Indie, folky, southern fusion. Great chemistry. Great stories. Kept me totally entertained for the whole show. They only have one full length album thus far, so that gave them the chance to throw in a few covers. I think even MJ would approve of this:
Mumford & Sons last night. Fan-fucking-tastically amazing.
This kid was one of their opening acts. Very impressive. Particularly this song……..
His name is King Charles. Tell your friends.
Confessions of a Music Lover’s I-pod
I haven’t done much of anything recently on this have I? And this is the easiest way to ease myself back in…..
