Song of the Day: High Beam

Today’s song is High Beam by Sjowgren. Alternative/Indie. I love the message of this one. It’s extremely ‘self-reliant’ and I like the sentiment behind it. Look into the lyrics and you’ll find two things: Repetition and a introspective look… Read More

Song of the Day: Twinkle Lights

Today’s song is Twinkle Lights by The Sonder Bombs. Alternative/Indie. This one has a ton of punches behind it. Ton of angst/frustration behind the lyrics. Music that conveys emotion is always fun to listen to, because it’s relatable to… Read More

Song of the Day: Feel Good Inc

Today’s song is Feel Good Inc by Gorillaz. Alt-Rock, with bits of funk and hip-hop thrown in. Always fun to sing at karaoke. We both know someone has the lyrics memorized. The acoustic is the best part of this… Read More
