1. Bruno Mars - Runaway Baby
My guilty pleasure cup runneth over when it comes to Mr. Mars. This jam is funkaliciously fantastic. Turn it up and let your best backup dancer moves flow freely.
2. Corrine Bailey Rae - Put Your records On
I saw her on Jools Holland and so I started digging into her bag of goodies and found this little ditty. Then three days later, they did this song on NBC's The Voice. This one puts me in the summer mood.
3. Dawes - From a Window Seat
This is the first single from the new record and I'm sure there will more to come in the next few months. If I had to talk about Dawes in five words or less i would say; "I fucking love these guys.".
4. Vance Joy - Riptide
One of my music advisors at work hooked me up with this song. It's not on iTunes or Amazon, but I found a free download online, so if you want it let me know.
5. Passenger - The Wrong Direction
Starting to become a big fan of this guy. I'm taking it one song at a time, but I have three tunes now, and I could see a nice future for him in my starting rotation.
6. Biffy Clyro - Many of Horror
This song starts out slow and builds nicely over its four minute run. If you like Blue October then these guys should be right up your alley.
7. Ed Sheeran - Lego House
This is a dry-humping on an old couch in your parent's basement kind of song. If you are a twenty-something girl who revels in poppy John Mayer and Jason Mraz then Mr. Sheeran will fit in nicely to your music collection.
8. Jake Bugg - Two Fingers
A strong Beatle-esque vibe on this track. Whenever I listen to Jake Bugg I feel like the early 60's just exploded in my ears.
9. Josh Ritter - A Certain Light
Mr. Idaho, Josh Ritter, drops his second song off the new record into the mix for May. Fresh off of a divorce this record harkens back to his earlier stuff, where it was just him and a guitar.
10. Avalanche City - Love Love Love
This isn't a track where I'd go to my friends "Holy shit dude, you have to hear this one...", but it's a pleasant enough background jam when you're pounding drinks on the deck.
11. Griffin House - Real Love Can't Pretend
This track is a panty dropper for all of the folks in relationships out there. A little on the sappy side, but I'll give Griffin a pass on this one.
12. Frank Turner - Photosynthesis
I have a thing for clap-along, cockney-accented, sing-along songs, and this jam meets the requirements for all of those categories. So hoist a pint and sing it loud and proud.
13. Bob Schneider - Honeypot
Bob has a new record coming out in June and so I was perusing his catalog for and I came across this track. Probably not in my top 20 songs from him, but enough to tide me over until his new tunes are released.
14. James Morrison - I Won't Let You Go
James Morrison could sing the Meow Mix Jingle and you'd believe that he was the hungriest cat of all time. The soulfulness in his voice is unforgettable.
15. Gaslight Anthem - Mulholland Drive
My wife has a thing for the grittiness of Brian Fallon's voice, and this song is extra gritty. I promise I'll lay off GA in the next few months to make room for some other newer artists.
3. Dawes - From a Window Seat
