Music Mondays | Jet

After a brief hiatus, Music Mondays is back once again. After a long time away we want to bring you a band many of you may be familiar with, but may not know a lot of their songs, and that band is Jet. While the Aussie band Jet, out of Melbourne Australia, is well known for their hits such as “Cold Hard Bitch”, and “Are You Gonna be my Girl”, much of their catalogue is unknown to most. With great lyrics, and riffs with an old school classic rock feel, Jet is one of the best bands you will ever listen to, and one of my favorite. Jet formed in 2001 in Melbourne Australia, with Cameron Muncey as the lead guitarist, Mark Wilson on bass, and brothers Nic and Chris Cester on rhythm guitar […]

Music Mondays | Stromae

Stromae, or Paul Van Haver, is a Belgian singer-songwriter who creates exceptional music in the electronic and hip-hop genres. While all his songs are in French, if you are not familiar with the language it sounds like gibberish, however, the producing and flow of the songs still make it enjoyable, even to the untrained ear. Interesting music videos, and amazing […]

Music Mondays | TV Girl

TV Girl is so underground they don’t even have a Wikipedia page, or a Vevo page, in this day of technology, that is saying something. However, with little info known, what is known is that TV Girl makes some damn good music, music that you should have. With slow, mellow, rocky (is that a word?) beats, TV Girl makes some awesome chill beats to ski, or just chill to. […]
