So the last few days have been interesting. I cant really write too much about them though. What I can say is that life is funny sometimes and takes some unexpected turns. Hows that for vague? Also, I had a this life altering epiphany the other night too. Im seriously going to try to be a better person from now on. I can give more of myself and I want to. Our stay on this planet is short, why not take advantage and be the best we can be? Sappy, I know.
Btw, Im obsessed with the show THE EX LIST. Its hilarious, check it out. No, you dont need cable. Its about a girl in her early thirties trying to find her future husband after getting her palm read and hearing that she was going to marry someone that she was already in a relationship with. AKA one of her ex-boyfriends. Just watch it.
What else, what else?? DELTA SPIRIT is playing tonight. Im so excited! If you dont know them, check em out. Their new album is really great and their old one is even better. MATT VASQUEZ's voice is beautiful and KELLY WINRICH can play a piano . The whole band is actually EXTREMELY amazing and very good looking ;) Theyre based out of SAN DIEGO and their sound is sort of like Indie rock meets Bluegrassy country. My friend P from Costa Mesa turned me on to these guys, his friends, 2 years ago and Ive been hooked ever since. People compare them to the COLD WAR KIDS, oddly enough, those are their boys. I happen to think they kinda stand on their own plane. Theres a deep southern influence in their sound with a significant amount of soul too. Their lyrics make me think, and I love that. Theyre hopeful, real and grounding yet not sad. They use a ton of instruments like the CWK- trash can lids, tambourines etc.. Speaking of trash cans, check out TRASHCAN off of the ODE TO SUNSHINE. PEOPLE CMON is great too. Just get the album OKAY??? My real favorites though are GIMME SOME MOTIVATION and STREETWALKER off of their older album called I THINK IVE FOUND IT. I think ive actually blogged about these dudes before. Their whole inner circle of bands rule. AA BONDY, COLD WAR KIDS, DR. DOG.... Refreshing bands in a not so refreshing music scene lately. Is it me or is everything starting to sound the same? Get on these guys.
HERES A TASTE
I DARE YOU TO TELL ME THAT THIS SONG DOESNT MAKE YOU FEEL A LITTLE BIT TALLER!!
THIS ONE MAKES ME WANT TO JUMP OUT OF MY CAR - ALWAYS PUTS ME IN A GOOD MOOD.
