Any summation of 2009 would be inadequate without a mention of the brother/sister duo Two White Horses. Here's an update to my original post which is below, the song "Eyes Of The Noble": Eyes Of The Noble (via Let Me Like It ) ----- "Good Times Are Gone Forever" may be about growing up and realizing childhood is over, but it's hard not to think about the song more in the context of our present global meltdown. I love Lovissa's voice [...]
When Jake Szufnarowski (Tragedy) and Paul Green (School of Rock) - two of the most hard-to-impress men in the music industry - tell you to check out a new band, you'd be best advised to give them a shot. Green was recently in Sweden with his School of Rock and took in a concert by Swedish Pop act Two White Horses . He fell in love with the Brother/Sister duo's beautiful, honest and heartfelt music. Paul came back to the States and played a few songs for Jake and Sznufnarowski was sold on the band within seconds. [...]
Stand By Your Band / Roxy Recordings Vad gör man när man har tråkigt i en turnébuss? En sak man kan göra är att börja sjunga på någon låt tillsammans med någon, och det var vad syskonen Jakob och Lovisa Nyström gjorde när de var med i Säkert!s band ute på turné. Lite spontant så där, och det är känslan man få när man lyssnar på deras självbetitalde debutalbum. Spontaniteten att ta några låtar man gillar och göra något eget. Vare sig det är ABBA eller El Perro del Mar. [...]
Gosh, is that another month gone already? Looks like it has, so it's time for another Music Alliance Pact, where the world's blogs come to The Daily Growl, courtesy of the hard work of MAP organiser Jason Pop Cop. This month he's outdone himself by providing HTML script to make ...
Here's March's edition of the Music Alliance Pact. For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. This month we've welcomed French blog SoundNation and Denmark's All Scandinavian to bring the total participation to 24 nations. Our contribution this month includes a beautiful, budding track from Florida-based Viernes . Nathaniel's decree [...]
This month's instalment of the Music Alliance Pact is out & about - there are now 24 participating blogs from around the world; every month you get one track from an artist or band in each country. It's a great way to discover something new - read the March list at The Pop Cop , who came up with the idea. As always, there's some splendid finds to be made; and not to suggest that the others aren't well worth a listen - these jumped out & grabbed my attention. [...]

MAP (Music Alliance Pact) is a monthly feature where music bloggers across the world share a track from their home country that they think you should hear. 24 blogs are submitting their country's pick this month including first-time contributions from France and Denmark. My Irish contribution is the opening track from David Kitt's new album The Nightsaver which I suggest you get when it comes out on March 27th. AMERICA: I Guess I'm Floating [...]

Hoy es 15 de Marzo y llegamos al sexto episodio de MAP, que fascinante cierto?, bueno este mes mis seleccionados han sido Resplandor, una banda imprescindible y que regreso el año pasado con "Pleamar" quizas su mejor logro hasta ahora, el camino que esta banda tiene fuera de este país es increible y facilmente podría ser la banda que mejor ha sabido vender su estilo, ese dream-pop que ni en sueños sonaria por aquí. Este mes no podre traducir las descripciones, pues porque hoy es domingo!. Disfruta... [...]

Once a month the Music Alliance Pact brings bloggers around the globe together and, by heck, that time is now. The number of countries in MAP stands at a record high of 24 after we tempted ambassadors from Denmark ( All Scandinavian ) and France ( SoundNation ) to join our gang with the promise of riches beyond their wildest dreams. As Scotland's representatives, The Pop Cop has something very special from We Were [...]
This great song from the Swedish outfit Two White Horses [Myspace], "Good Times Are Gone Forever", may ring of our perceived loss of innocence and the lack of joy in the world post-childhood, but there's an edge of reminiscence that's melded into the piece. I really dig their sound and there's some really great [...] [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]
"Good Times Are Gone Forever" may be about growing up and realizing childhood is over, but it's hard not to think about the song more in the context of our present global meltdown. I love Lovissa's voice on this track as well as the fuzzy chug chug guitar. I'm writing about this song and posting the video (below) by Two White Horses because I got two separate requests for their music this week. The live video of the duet "Face Me Know" is also jaw droppingly beautiful. Especially the interplay between the brother and [...]
Video till Two White Horses första singel från albumet som släpps den 18 mars. Videon är gjord av Linajosefina och delvis inspelad i Oman. Hur gick det då med låtens hitpotential; låten har spelats en del i P3, men för att veta om det är den radiohit de sagt att den ska bli, får man nog fråga vad de själva tycker.
På fredag börjar en ny säsong av UR-programmet Garage . Jag har fått förhandstitta på det första programmet, och jag såg bland annat två ytterst aktuella och intressanta band som båda släpper sina debutalbum i mars, nämligen Den Stora Sömnen och Two White Horses . Den Stora Sömnen talas det om lite överallt, och när jag lyssnar på Allt går åt helvete kan jag bara instämma med Anders Gustafsson i DT , att "de som [...]
