Live to Love

Tue, 24 Aug 2010 13:21:56 -0400

Today’s post isn’t dedicated to a band or artist, rather a an apparel line that you can find many of today’s musicians wearing. (Andrew Garcia, The Scene Aesthetic, Stephen Jerzak, many more…) Live to Love apparel is run by its creator, Taylor Thomas, and is dedicated to spreading the word about the love of Christ. Not only is there a loving message sent through the clothing/accessories, but every item is trendy, in style, and comfortable as they’re made on shirts from American Apparel.

So if you’re tired of all the hate in the world and interested in affordable shirts, sweatshirts, bracelettes, stickers, and even bags, go check out Live to Love Apparel. This line of apparel is appropriate to feature because it supports bands and bands support it, but even more importantly, it spreads the message of why were all put on this earth; we’re all meant to live to love. Go support.

Recomended items: new lines are created for every season, so keep an eye out for new items

Automatic Loveletter

Unforgettable vocals will be a dense fog lingering in your head after you listen to the songs of Automatic Loveletter. The powerful voice of Juliet Simms has lead this Flordia native indie pop rock band to performing at Bamboozle and Vans Warped Tour multiple times. To use a cliche, there are no words that could be used or even made up to describe just how amazing these songs sounds. Seriously. This is the band to listen to if you dig acoustic, rock, and even some pop. You should do yourself a favor and go check them out, and then after you do, tell all your friends about them to. Soooo, go hear them! …right now.

Recomended Songs: All of them!

He Is We

Mon, 16 Aug 2010 18:55:00 -0400

There’s only one thing I can think of that I find more excitingly rare than seeing a dog walk on its hind legs…and that’s coming across a band where you love every single one of its released songs. Literally. The duo of Rachel Taylor and Trevor Kelly do just that when they combine their indicative lyrics and lasting melodies to form the band He Is We. Located in Tacoma, Washington, the brilliant musical talent of Kelly pushes the already powerful voice of Taylor to the level of being an amazing grace to each ear it reaches. Audatious lyrics of the love, happiness, and pain that everyone relates to, are the bridge that inevitably forms a relationship of he is we with all who listen.

If you like acoustic music, with relatable lyrics, and an angelic voice to glue it all together, this is a band that you want to hear. They also go above and beyond to show they care about their fans by social network interactions, giving free downloads, and even taking the time to watch the numerous covers/videos of their songs circulating youtube. Also, be sure to check out their cover of Iyaz’s hit song “Replay.” Go hear them!

Recomended Songs: Pardon Me, I Wouldn’t Mind, A Mess As It Grows, Happily Ever After, Replay
