“I Wake Up” is a very soulful single that The Glorious has released.  The tone and vocals have a haunting feel to them.  This is one that will make you pause to listen and absorb.  Very nice job all the way around.  The Glorious are sharing with us here at ComicPop Library their music video for “I Wake Up” through their YouTube channel.  You can find “I Wake Up” on their album Falcon.  Take a moment to watch and listen to “I Wake Up” to feel the emotional power of this single – Richard:

museshred kelly1

Here’s one for you Folk/Rock listeners.  Shred Kelly is sharing with us the title track, “Sing to the Night”, off their upcoming album by the same name.  “Sing to the Night” starts out slow and then it takes off at a fun beat.  You can tell in the music video Shred Kelly is sharing with us, that the group is having fun as well.  If this single doesn’t get your body to moving I don’t know what will.  Here is the music video for “Sing to the Night” from the groups YouTube channel and see if you can help singing to the night with them – Richard:

Keznamdi Latest Single “Champion”

musechampion

Here we go!  A new week and a great start with Keznamdi’s latest single “Champion”.  Keznamdi is a Jamaican artist that gives us a song that gives the listener the desire to strive to work harder to reach their goals.  Most of these power/inspirational songs are geared for sports themed events.  As you can tell by the photo that Keznamdi is in a sporting arena.  However, these same songs, which now include his “Champion” can be used to inspire anyone.  Keznamdi is sharing “Champion” with us and can be heard through the YouTube channel SoBe Entertainment as an audio feed.  Get your day started upbeat – Richard:

Sweet Bronco “Crush, Crush” Music Video

musebronco

In Sweet Bronco’s single “Crush, Crush” we get a call back to the 1960’s psychedelic age.  Fans of this music will enjoy their sound and fans that lived in that time will probably recall some memories.  When Sweet Bronco started the vocals, and this is especially with the chorus, I instantly had a call back to something that The Doors would do.  The group is sharing with us their music video for “Crush, Crush” from the Unit 1 Sessions’ YouTube channel – Richard:

British India’s “I Can Make You Love Me”

museBritish

British India is sharing with us their music video of their single “I Can Make You Love Me”.  British India I would place in the Folk/Rock genre.  Think of Tom Petty and others like that and you have British India’s sound.  The video itself kind of reminds me of a play on Beauty and the Beast that went wrong, but that’s just me.  Check out their video for “I Can Make You Love Me” through LiberationMusicAus YouTube channel, I think you will enjoy it – Richard:
