SotM: 2/29/12

Happy Leap Day everyone! Or if you don't celebrate this pagan holiday celebration of Leap Day William...then happy February 29th.

This tune comes from a NYC artist that I first heard last February 14th with "Flying Overseas", was amazed by him, but didn't give him a Song of the Moment tune for some odd reason. I love almost all of his stuff and if you haven't listened to his stuff before you definitely need to check him out. So here he is, an artist that I think is absolutely going to blow up soon, so check it now!

When I first heard this song several weeks ago I honestly thought it was Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros coming out with something new. I listened a little closer and could tell it wasn't them. I HAD to know who it was. I'm glad I figured it out because this band RULES. This song comes from an Icelandic folk band that released this song in the US a month ago and it's been doing quite well. So, if you haven't heard this song...just click play. Enjoy today's SotM!

Here's another tune for you music lovers out there.

My last Song of the Moment jam ("Don't Stop") was in September and was released as a single by this band in January of this year...it's a great song so don't be afraid to look in the blog archives for it. But this band's first single was released in 2010 yet didn't really hit big until early-ish in 2011 and was one of the most overplayed songs of the year. It's a good song but WOW I couldn't stand to hear it for a while there. This song of theirs is another great tune, with a weird music video, and I hope you appreciate it for not being "Pumped Up Kicks." You're welcome.

My dear friends,
I apologize for the long time it's been since I have posted about music. I've been blogging a decent amount recently but it's mostly been about my recent photo and video works. I was really trying to make my website look more professional and all that but I'm going to be redoing my website soon enough to allow me to blog about whatever I want AND also have posts about my video/photo work. So enough talking...welcome back to the Song of the Moment!

This tune comes from a talented musician that I knew nothing about until a couple months ago. Check out this song from his August 2011 album. Enjoy!
