#008 - Foxes

From Southampton Louisa Rose Allen (Foxes) is part of a 2 piece band, but like Marina and her "Diamonds" and Florence and her "Machine", the rest of the band sit back because the main focus is on the main artist, the singer who has composed the lyrics and the style he/she wants there music to be played in.
I came across Foxes on youtube, literally just one of those random finds that you know straight away is going to be a gem!
I have since listened to there EP "Warrior", which i can easily say is the best EP release i've heard this year, the title track "Warrior" and single "White Coats" are simply stunning!
Foxes is definitely a must listen if your a lover of artists such as Claire Maguire and Niki and the Dove.

Listen To: White Coats

Hailing from Preston, UK, are Next Stop Atlanta, At the moment i would say they are near the top on my ipod/itunes most played list, they formed in early 2010 and have managed to firmly cement there place on the local and countrywide circuit!

It still shows that the UK can provide really good pop/punk bands at any age and that there not only from across the pond

They have 2 EP's out at the moment, the first is a self tilted EP, the songs to look out for on there are 'I'll Catch Fire (The Gift)' and 'Fourteennineeightyseven'.

The Second EP is called 'The Things You Do Best', songs to look out for are 'I'm Not Morrissey' and 'Get In The Van'.

They are sure for major success!

If your a lover of Folk/Country or just generally meaningful straight from the heart songwriting, you will love The Civil Wars, 

To be honest you would of heard of them already. If you haven't heard of them, where have you been the last 6 months!

Made up of Joy Williams and John Paul White they've had a lot of success in the 3 years they have been writing music together, everything from sold out tours in the US and UK to winning Grammy's for 'Best Country Duo/Group Performance' & 'Best Folk Album'. They also have co-write and featured in the title track ('Safe and Sound' with Taylor Swift) for the recent film the Hunger Games!

There Debut album 'Barton Hollow' (Pronounced Barton Holler native to Jon Paul), is a masterpiece in it's self and is defiantly worth whatever price you pay for it!

From the album, give a listen to:

 'Poison & Wine', 'C'est La Mort & title track 'Barton Hollow'

#005 - Alex Clare

I'm gonna be honest, How Alex Clare has not received mainstream attention is ridiculous!

To see that his album did not even make it into the top 40 is beyond me,

Believe it or not i only found out about him yesterday during an ad break for Facejacker, it was Microsoft's latest attempt to show the wonders of Internet Explorer! ( Yes I'm being sarcastic!)

His most achieving single to date 'Too close' was the backing to the advert, so i did what i do with every new artist i stumble across, check out the single in it's entirety, see if they have an album and then give it a listen! I was blown away from Track 1, the rest of the album follows as suit. I just love the cross stitching of the 2 completely different genre's Soul & Dubstep,

Check out Alex Clare's Album - 'The Lateness Of The Hour'.

On the album make sure to check out:

'Up All Night', 'Too Close' & his brilliant cover of Prince's 'When Doves Cry'.

Containing the Excitement is hard!!!!!

Got my We Are The In Crowd t-shirt today through the post to do from a brilliant online band merch seller called MerchNOW, it actually cost me less to by it from the USA and get it shipped than to by it through a online seller in the UK!

Much love for MerchNow!!

#004 - The Dirty Youth

http://joeyvoodoo.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/dirty1.jpg?w=627&h=418

Welsh Rockers The Dirty Youth are continuing the stream of amazing rock bands coming out of Wales, for example the likes of Lost Prophets and Bullet For My Valentine, anyway... Lead Singer Danni Munroe (who i've had the pleasure of meeting, a very nice person she is!). Is probably one of the best rock female front women on the circuit at the moment to appear since the likes of Amy Lee, Christina Scabbia and Sharon Den Adel when they started there careers with there respective bands.

Her positivity and fiest-i-ness oozes through the band and there debut album Red Light Fix is one of my top albums of 2011!

If you hear that they are in a town or city near you go and watch them because you will not be disappointed!
