I’m pretty sure this band is giddy for their new album “Lost in Translation” to release Oct. 6. “Madeleine” is playful and happy. The introductory piano chords immediately reminded me of “Mr. Pitiful” by Matt Costa, which is also upbeat and playful despite the title.

It has been an active week for music and Imagine Dragons chucked some stuffed mushrooms on the dinner table, but are tight-lipped about what they used to stuff this delicacy with. The effort behind exposing this song to the public in an abstract and repetitive way is astounding. First, Imagine Dragons released an official video for “Believer“. …

Yes, you read that title right, another theory! After having a team of people study the music videos, and listen to the Lumineers album over and over, I have a second theory (by “team” I mean my girlfriend and I driving and listening to the album and discussing possibilities). You should definitely read the prior articles if …
The Lumineers have dropped a bombshell within the music video world. Their video series started out harmlessly enough with vague storylines revolving around decisions, yet resulting in your heart being torn with emotion at the end.

The Lumineers are making 2016 their year. Starting out with the single release of “Ophelia”, which led up to their second album release on April 8th. Cleopatra was an instant success that kicked off their tour. I can attest that fame has not corrupted the simple beauty of The Lumineers. Having seen them perform in …
As many music fans know The Lumineers are back after investing personal time into their upcoming CD for nearly three years. It was time well invested.
