Coachella Countdown – 52 Days
Artist of the day – Eliza Doolittle
Thank you once again itunes free download for giving me Eliza Doolittle. She is so full of color, life and talent!
I found this video on her site. I am a HUGE fan of artists covering hit singles acoustically. Possibly one of my favorites things done in music. And I just love this song.

A good friend of mine is also a music lover/discoverer and was shocked when I hadn’t heard of Oh Land.
I swear the second I finally did check her out she is appearing everywhere from blogs to tv shows. Such a unique piece of magic.
Here is Oh Land covering one of my favorite Fleet Foxes song.

Artist of the day: Foster the People
Most are familiar with their single “Pumped up Kicks,” which I love, but there is something about Helena Beats that makes me want to dance around on a couch.
Its the kind of feeling that makes you want jump around on your parents furniture when they weren’t home while playing that “dance” music they hated.
Grab a tambourine, turn up the volume, clap your hands and get ready to dance around.

Obsessed.
February 12, 2011
I tend to get obsessed with specific songs and put them on repeat.
This is one of many at the moment. It’s one of those songs you that makes you want to stick your head through your sunroof and shout the chorus at the top of your lungs.

Anyone familiar with The Format?
This is The Format’s frontman newest band. They live up to their name. I saw them live in Vegas a year ago and had the time of my life… well it might have been the fact I was in Vegas, but nonetheless, here is one of my favorite songs… Take a listen.

UPDATE – It still looks like Marina is playing coachella! Good news!
Coachella Update: 67 Days
Artist of the day: Marina and the Diamonds.
Unfortunately I believe this artist was just removed from the line up according to the coachella official: twitter. I was actually looking forward to seeing her live as I haven’t been to interested in this band until hearing more of her music throughout television. It’s a singer/songwriter with an edgy pop feel… At Coachella or not, she has a great voice and is a great new asset to my music library.
