The Music Rag
There's a vintage charm to this self-described 'nostalgic bunch' and having their video for "Lucy" shot on super8 film makes it that much sweeter. Sunshine & The Blue Moon's sound drips of warm vintage riffs that'll lull you into a trance and longing lyrics that'll have you falling, all while keeping it fresh with cool vocals and lazy beats.
Check out the video and head to the sites for more on their forthcoming debut LP release.

The personification of laying in bed with someone you love while warm sunlight drifts lazily onto the sheets, Sugar & The Hi-Lows "Morning Joy" is pure, unobtrusive perfection. The effortless mix of vintage rock, modern country, and soul is careful and drifting, sweet and sultry, and impossible to ignore and harder to forget. Listen to the single and head to the sites below for more from the Nashville duo you need to know.
A palpable energy and sweet charm make LA based WASI irresistible, but their refreshing ability to make music that will have you smiling from the first note is what makes them a band you need to know. That uniquely uplifting sound is why you should still be listening to their May released EP Bleed Pop (check out "And the World" and "Fire"), because meaningful, relatable lyrics, smooth melodies against hitting beats, and vocal harmonies that melt into one are too great to pass over.
There's an undeniable charm to Joni in the Moon's dark twist on pop and if the entrancing vocals aren't enough to pull you in, honest to the bone lyrics and a flighty, dancing melody will have you addicted. An anticipatory build promises and delivers an explosive chorus and an even better bridge, guaranteed to stick with you, so grab your free download from Triple J and settle in for Perth based siblings Joni and Josh Hogan's delicious take on folktronica.
