Estrons - Make A Man SCS

SoundCloud Song

I have totally fallen for this track Make A Man by Estrons. It is the bands first single released from the soon to drop EP (Whoever she was) which should be available on December the 11th. What I love about this track aside from it having all of the standard great rock'n'roll hooks and pounding guitar/drums is the vocals from lead singer Taliesyn Kallstrom. I am not certain of how old she is but she has a way of singing the lyrics that makes her seem older than her years. Like she has lived a past life and is back to recapture the best bits for us to hear. Really powerful singer. Enjoy!  

The Tallest Man On Earth - Dark Bird Is Home MA

May Album

Notable albums this month come from Best Coast, Du Blonde, Hop Along, Brandon Flowers and more but my favourite is the 4th studio album from The Tallest Man On Earth called Dark Bird Is Home. Through listening to the album, I fall for everything he sings about even if at first I don't fully understand that what he is singing about. After multiple listens I was hooked and in the palm of his hand like warm putty. This is just a testament to him as a lyricist and a musician who has the ability to convey strong messages in the short limited length of a song. I hope you enjoy the whole album in the video below as much as I do.

YouTube Video Of The Week 21/01/14

This weeks track really surprised me, infact I only knew I was going to pick this song about 2 hours before me writing this. I changed up the music on my iPhone and put a bit of Caitlin Rose on there and that is when I heard this song. It is such a simple song and it really shows what can be done with just a voice and a tambourine. The track being live just makes it even more wholesome and sweet sounding plus the added hand claps from the crowd. This video deserves way more views than its got and Caitlin Rose has got plently more great tracks to check out.
