Music Tuesday

Tony Lucca is a wonderful musician and an incredibly nice guy. He opened for Tyrone Wells (who you should also be listening too)! My friend and I sold merchandise for their Portland concert last week. Also note that Tony Lucca is much better looking than his album cover leads you to believe. Buy his album here.

John Butler Trio's new album, April Uprising, came out today! It is hard to describe their sound but one said they are an "eclectic roots/jam band" which seems pretty accurate. They are hugely popular in Australia. Buy their album here. (itunes has it for a couple dollars more for 3 bonus tracks). They are on tour as well. Check out their dates here.

Jack Johnson's new single, You and Your Heart. I love Jack Johnson. He the best with the car windows down and the sun hitting your face. His new album, To The Sea, comes out June 6th. He is going on tour this summer. Check it out here. Buy his single here.

Minus the Bear. Their album, Omni, comes out May 4th. Start the countdown! And then buy it here when the time comes.

Hope you found something new to listen to! Feel free to give me suggestions of new musicians as well. I love new music!

You Know You Want To Listen

I currently am loving Elizabeth & the Catapult!!!! If you can handle a little jazz, a little funk, and a little pop then Elizabeth & the Catapult is for you. Seriously, a great album that I highly recommend taking a listen to. If you like it, I am sure you will, then it is only $5 on amazon right now! Yeah, $5! Buy it here.

P.S. Sisters, let me send this to you asap.

You Know You Want To Listen

This week, I am bringing you Matt Duke. Brought to you courtesy of my younger sister, Coco. She gave me his albums a while back and I feel in love with this kid. What is there not to love about a cute boy playing guitar and writing his own music? He started playing piano when he was seven and taught himself how to play the guitar. I can't honestly pick a favorite song. His albums are the type where you listen to all the songs without having to skip a track. But some of his more popular songs are "Sex and Reruns" and "Rabbit" and "Tidal Wave". I own both the "Winter Child" and "Kingdom Underground" albums and you should too.
Check out his website here.This live performance was at Drexel University, Philadelphia last September 2008. My newly married friends just flew into Philadelphia today. He is going there for med school there!

Go ahead and listen.
