Each month here we visit with a member of the community to find out what music they've been digging.
On tour in Europe last spring, my band stumbled across the music of Australian electropop band Parcels. SO good! Refreshing and musical. Funky grooves, a guitarist who looks like George Harrison, tight vocal harmonies. Check out Live Vol. 1 (complete footage) on YouTube and their single "Tieduprightnow." I'm also loving the tropical vibes of Molly Lewis's "Oceanic Feeling." This song sounds like a vintage Hawaiian classic from the 1930s but was only released last year. Makes me want a grass skirt. Love it. And while we're touring the tropics, "To the Island," also released last year by the beloved Crowded House, is one of their best songs yet.
