Cloud Nothings
So sometimes I am even shocked by the underground stuff I can find, this is one of those times. Cloud Nothings is very similar to the band Oberhofer in style and in how they both should and will soon be known to all. They have a rough sound because they are unsigned and it works beautifully. Their catchy beats and and riffs plus great lyrics hook you immediately. If you like bands such as Neon Trees, The Temper Trap, and well any other band like them with catchy songs that sound like they could and usually do end up being on commercials. Cloud Nothings is for you!!!!

Mofro and Chiddy Bang
This post will consist of two bands not at all alike.
Mofro
Mofro brings something to this blog that is new and good. BLUES! And man do they do it good. Mofro is very soulful and have a southern touch to their bluesy music. They also go by another name, JJ Grey & Mofro, mainly because JJ Grey is the leader of the band.

Chiddy Bang
I apologize for not putting this band on here earlier. I have known about them for months now and never really thought about putting them on here, and I'm not quite sure why. But, they are gaining recognition and popularity so rapidly I decided it would be best to put them up here while they are still unknown to some. Chiddy Bang is a hip hop group with loads of talent. They released their first album this year which featured song Opposite of Adults, which for obvious reasons, samples Kids by MGMT. They have recently remixed popular song Fuck You by Cee Lo Green.

Cover Post
So in this post I am going to be posting links to listen to great professional covers of already great songs. Most of the time covers ruin songs but not these ones. The first is the original, second is the cover.
This is just a few, if you guys like this comment and I'll do more.
G. Love
Like Jack Johnson? Mat Kearney? Citizen Cope? Ben Harper? Bob Dylan? Everlast? If you answered yes to any of those G. Love is for you.
G. Love is the lead singer to the band G. Love & Special Sauce but he also has a solo album where he collaborates with Jack Johnson. He is one of the few people who knows how to incorporate hip-hop sounds with acoustic melodies. His current solo album Lemonade is amazing.
