No Time for Hidin’

Saw these guys play a show not too long ago. Incredible poten­tial would be an under­state­ment for their impres­sive sound. It’s rock with just the right splash of piano pop. I like to think the song below is a love child of sorts between Cold­play and Gavin DeGraw. That’s not to say their sound isn’t orig­i­nal though; […]

Almost Lovers Always Do

The song below is the radio mix because it’s a bit less depress­ing than it’s strictly piano-vocal album coun­ter­part.

I just down­loaded their entire discog­ra­phy after hear­ing this record. The instru­men­tal in this track is just so incred­i­ble.

One Has to Follow

Folks, this song right here is one of the best songs ever writ­ten. I don’t say that because I can relate to the lyrics 100% but because it truly is beyond words. I can’t believe I haven’t posted it before. Soak it in! [Audio clip: view full post to lis­ten] You and I are gonna get […]
