Elena Tonra that is making music you MUST HEAR. Listening to her two EPs, "The Wild Youth" and "His Young Heart" take you back to a place where you just heard Feist, FIona Apple, etc for the first time. The voice. The music. The perfection. <br /><br />Spending her days listening to her parent's vinyl collection and her older brother's rock CDs shaped her style of music which can be grouped into the "folk", "female acoustic singer", and "indie" categories. Yet, Daughter seems to have formed a category all her own. Her etherial voice mixed with notes of acoustic guitar, punching drums and touching lyrics makes her a force to be reckoned with once the world begins to listen.<br /><br />Have a listen to "Home" and see what you are missing:<br /><br /><object height="81" width="100%"> <param name="movie" value="https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F24687181"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed allowscriptaccess="always" height="81" src="https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F24687181" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"></embed> </object> <br /><br />To get her EPs go to her <a href="http://ohdaughter.bandcamp.com">Bandcamp page</a> and enjoy!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYnk_BA-t9ssuEw_z7rXTbTuAtOZPaSNHcLALw9xqHue_X2Ee7mCQn8GsTKz_FJKONv4x0_vckAj1OPdwjNz1GAwGYmv7efJxEmgWdGa3d5bPJ7kUW__Ln7LlS-6mxsnzzh7pd/s1600/305263_288221981190465_179050858774245_1141805_21307187_n.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 228px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYnk_BA-t9ssuEw_z7rXTbTuAtOZPaSNHcLALw9xqHue_X2Ee7mCQn8GsTKz_FJKONv4x0_vckAj1OPdwjNz1GAwGYmv7efJxEmgWdGa3d5bPJ7kUW__Ln7LlS-6mxsnzzh7pd/s320/305263_288221981190465_179050858774245_1141805_21307187_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5677526525386727394" /></a>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-42089465570265024982011-11-11T13:00:00.000-08:002011-11-11T15:53:56.893-08:00Likely Listens: SULKWelcome back Madchester!

Covering "Video Games" for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge, BBC and Lucy Rose create the most innocent yet sultry rendition of the song that calls for this video to be on repeat constantly. The song itself is pretty extraordinary but the real argument is the BBC and Lucy Rose cover better than the original?

Of course, what introduced Amy to the world was her jaw dropping music which we will always want more of. <br /><br />Now, several months later, the posthumous album "Lioness: Hidden Treasures" has been revealed and a leaked track with Nas titled "Like Smoke" has been getting rave reviews. Clearly done after Amy's passing (evident from the line "why did G-d take away the homey I can't stand it), the track features Amy's incredible soul driven vocals and a fine performance from Nas who makes the song that much better.<br /><br /><!-- begin hulk embed --><br /><iframe src="http://hulkshare.com/mp3.html?fn=4a2b3qk0fnmj&tn=AMY WINEHOUSE FT NAS - LIKE SMOKE IFWT" height=50 width=428 scrolling=no frameborder=0 border=0></iframe><br /><!-- end hulk embed --><br /><br />"Lioness: Hidden Treasures" will be released on 12/5 through Island Records.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizjhTOkTjNxMzQmqy8zX2twxAfavRlzOyGy_8M9XqA1PILnI4EwdnFWvqDKlgBeSwCaEK6oD59D0VBCZ2fBZjL4B1nchScGfX1WJhtTGGkZUxB2qyknl6lJ8lra7BxxNPdwmmC/s1600/Amy-Winehouse-608x608.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizjhTOkTjNxMzQmqy8zX2twxAfavRlzOyGy_8M9XqA1PILnI4EwdnFWvqDKlgBeSwCaEK6oD59D0VBCZ2fBZjL4B1nchScGfX1WJhtTGGkZUxB2qyknl6lJ8lra7BxxNPdwmmC/s320/Amy-Winehouse-608x608.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5670783302855789042" /></a>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-14014462020183839982011-11-01T07:16:00.001-07:002011-11-01T07:55:58.139-07:00Likely Looks: Summer Camp - DownThe fantastic boy and girl duo otherwise known as Summer Camp have returned to the scene with their debut album "Welcome To Condale".

As luck would have it, their demos fell into the hands of Black Francis, leading to an opening slot with heroes The Pixies at a concert in London. Shortly after, the band's buzz, perseverance, and reputation as a furiously energetic live act earned them a slot on their first UK tour, supporting the Mystery Jets.<br /><br />Being hailed as "the best American band in Britain" by NME, the band are now setting their sights on the country whose music they love so much--America, with a set of U.S. tour dates beginning December 7 at Great Scott in Boston, MA.<br /><br />Their UK single "We Were Children" sparks a frenzy outside Camden as they flipped the video on a rooftop. Watch it here:<br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/52QHnUF13hs" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /><br />To catch TRIBES on their first U.S. tour here are the dates:<br /><br />December 7 Boston, MA Great Scott<br />December 8 New York, NY Mercury Lounge<br />December 9 Brooklyn, NY Glasslands<br />December 10 Toronto, ON The Drake<br />December 11 Chicago,IL Schubas<br />December 12 Los Angeles, CA The EchoThe Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-83600914083733353042011-07-27T10:44:00.000-07:002011-07-27T10:54:12.650-07:00Grouplove Unveil New Video For "Tongue Tied", Plot Fall TourLos Angeles' Grouplove are definitely continuing to make a name for themselves amongst music fans with their third video "Tongue Tied".

Taking the UK by storm in 2003 with her debut album <span style="font-weight:bold;">Frank<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span>, Winehouse moved the needle with tracks like <span style="font-weight:bold;">Fuck Me Pumps<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Stronger Than Me<span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-style:italic;"><span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span></span></span>. Coming out with a sound that was missing from music for a long time; combining 60's girl group throwbacks and Motown with her own unique twist, Amy Winehouse truly was an extraordinary talent.<br /><br />In 2006, coming out with her masterpiece <span style="font-weight:bold;">Back To Black<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span> was really the defining moment in her career. That voice. Those songs. That attitude. Winehouse breathed new life into an industry filled with manufactured pop stars with her sound and the personality that went along with it. Attracting an audience of everyone from indie kids to hip hop heads, her music and talent translated to the masses worldwide. Paving the way for artists such as the now multi platinum Adele and Duffy, Winehouse is and will always will be the woman that broke down doors for a lot of the female singers we know and love today.<br /><br />Sadly, the world only got to experience 2 incredible albums and 27 years of life with Winehouse but her legacy will go on forever. R.I.P. Amy.<br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/iVaqQe3V498" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ojdbDYahiCQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-70411214735056572011-07-06T12:23:00.000-07:002011-07-25T21:23:26.749-07:00Noel Gallagher Announces Not One But TWO Solo AlbumsSo it seems there IS life after Oasis and the brothers Gallagher have truly went their separate ways. After Oasis' monumental break up in Paris, Liam of course went on to form Beady Eye and Noel now officially has announced his solo releases.<br /><br />The first one, produced by Dave Sardy, is titled <span style="font-style:italic;">Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds</span> and set for release on October 17th in the UK and November 10th in the US. The second album's title is TBD but will be out in 2012. Sardy is no stranger to working with Gallagher as he produced both Don't Believe The Truth and Dig Out Your Soul for Oasis.<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Bird</span>s was recorded in Los Angeles and features some backing musicians in addition to Gallagher. Plans to tour off the release in the fall are in the works but dates have yet to be announced.<br /><br />Track listing below:<br /><br />1. Everybody’s On The Run<br />2. Dream On<br />3. If I Had A Gun…<br />4. The Death Of You And Me<br />5. (I Wanna Live In A Dream In My) Record Machine<br />6. AKA… What A Life!<br />7. Soldier Boys And Jesus Freaks<br />8. AKA… Broken Arrow<br />9. (Stranded On) The Wrong Beach<br />10. Stop The Clocksl<br /><br />Knowing Noel, this record will probably be quite fantastic. <br /><br />UPDATE! Here is video from the press conference Noel held in London today<br /><br /><iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/p_OBngICXRo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-72599214726193047792011-07-05T19:56:00.000-07:002011-07-05T20:02:00.032-07:00Likely Looks: Cher Lloyd - Swagger JaggerWho knows exactly what "swagger jagger" is remains to be seen, but it seems as though the 3rd runner up on this season's X Factor in the UK is making it a new catch phrase.

It could be that voice...a little bit Kate Bush with a more aggressive twist. Or maybe its the fact that Diamandis can walk on stage in a blue and black plaid dress and feathered heels and you can still take her seriously. Whatever it is, it works...and well.<br /><br />Opening the set with the song <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Family Jewels<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span>, the crowd immediately became enraptured with Diamandis as she confidently strutted on stage. Playing a number of songs off her debut album <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Family Jewels<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span> as well as some unreleased tracks including <span style="font-weight:bold;">Jealousy<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span>, she exuded not only confidence but a huge amount of star power as fans belted her quirky lyrics right along with her.<br /><br />Naming her tour the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Burger Queen Tour</span>, Diamandis payed homage to America with a stars and stripes tank top and shorts for her encore...and a massive burger prop in hand. Quite appropriate for the last song she played, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Hollywood<span style="font-style:italic;"></span></span>. Seems like she's won over more than just Hollywood...all of America is in love.<br /><br /><iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/PWRJ90u0WBw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-88508397815011164852011-04-11T07:36:00.000-07:002011-04-11T07:50:39.482-07:00Miles Kane Takes On Edwyn Collins For Record Store DayFormerly of The Rascals and currently one half of The Last Shadow Puppets with Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner, Miles Kane is making a name for himself as well as a solo artist. Recording a special 7" for Record Store Day, Kane tackled Edwyn Collins classic "A Girl Like You" and it actually came out fantastic! The track was recorded in Edwyn’s own studio in North London and produced by Edwyn’s long term friend and engineer Sebastian Lewsley. Kane's unique, slightly haunting vocals add a new twist on the track which allow him to make it very much his own.<br /><br /><br />Listen to it here:<br /><object height="81" width="100%"> <param name="movie" value="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F13403453"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed allowscriptaccess="always" height="81" src="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F13403453" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"></embed> </object> <span><a href="http://soundcloud.com/miles-kane/miles-kane-a-girl-like-you">Miles Kane - A Girl Like You</a> by <a href="http://soundcloud.com/miles-kane">Miles Kane</a></span> <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXOivXJUpXxcscK6u52KxE7BGgzVCK0dhHM7qhejcck5dBaPEN6JT5Egq1CiKIFBcJXtctXy2W-3HeKr6Bkh38Y3nIpGYQnvrmJEj2woiwlE0Hopfs2x0fxXqiaKKybobZHYB-/s1600/artworks-000006287249-grcx6e-original.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 314px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXOivXJUpXxcscK6u52KxE7BGgzVCK0dhHM7qhejcck5dBaPEN6JT5Egq1CiKIFBcJXtctXy2W-3HeKr6Bkh38Y3nIpGYQnvrmJEj2woiwlE0Hopfs2x0fxXqiaKKybobZHYB-/s320/artworks-000006287249-grcx6e-original.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5594338160428557474" /></a>The Likely Broadshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06998426137339585770noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30416349.post-44781360591546747112011-03-04T12:59:00.000-08:002011-03-04T13:16:38.944-08:00Jessie J Covering The Naked And Famous?
