november: currently listening to

first off, i'm completely and totally in love with a band called GIVERS. their music just makes you smile. and i like smiling. 

coming from louisiana, this band is Kirby Campbell (drums/samples/vocals), Taylor Guarisco (guitar/vocals), Tif Lamson (vocals/percussion/ukulele), Josh Leblanc (bass), and William Henderson (synths/samples/vocals). they clearly have a really big variety of musical influences, because their sound is really unique and like nothing you've ever heard before. 

In Light, which is their first full length album is filled with just plain happy music. It's the kind of music you would add to your "dance around your living room/bedroom/area in your living space, like a total idiot" playlist. (i recommend up,up,up, words, or ceiling of plankton) 

also if you get the chance watch some of the youtube videos of them playing live. they are so energetic and passionate with their music. i mean, taylor is so into the music that his face looks like he's having a seizure, and you have to realize that he's singing, not dying. or this video, where they are playing a show in someones kitchen. and tif, makes me want a ukulele even more..even though i have no idea how to play. 

another band that i've been obsessed with this year for the past like 4 months is daughter. words cannot describe how beautiful every single one of their songs. guess you can only listen to it yourself.. kind of like where the wild things are........

well that's basically my main two favorite things this month. i've also gotten back into arcade fire...and fleet foxes. you should listen to THIS and THIS. 

oh and this. is it bad that i am addicted to this?

if you have music you think i should listen to, or videos i should watch and share, comment below. or just tell me what your listening to. unless you are listening to justin bieber. then leave. 

stay safe and don't get run over by a train,

converse shoes are pumped up kicks

so i was reading something and it had a link to the converse  music blog. so i checked it out mostly because i love converse shoes a lot, but when i went there i was seriously impressed by the music on their blog! if you like the same music as i do then you will be obsessed with a lot of the stuff they have on there. they have this thing called "3 artists, 1 song" where they feature 3 different artists collaborating on 1 original song. so anyways i was flipping around the stuff they had on here, and i discovered something seriously awesome sauce. there was one of these "3 artists 1 song" collabs with Kid Cudi (omg), Best Coast (OMG), and Rostam from Vampire Weekend (OMG). The song is called "All Summer" and you can download it for free (i downloaded the moment i heard it).  it's pretty sad that i found this song when summer is OVER! but there is some abnormally warm weather still where we live, so i'm going to keep listening to the song until it gets cold. but it's definitely going to be one of my summer songs next summer!
