I'm an Artist Pusher: Kris Allen

I first mentioned Kris Allen in this post, where I mentioned some songs I liked from his first album. His new album is set to come out in late May or June. As a result, I've been seeing a lot of leaked songs from Kris Allen. I didn't realize he as popular enough to have this much activity, but hey, I'm not complaining. Here's two of the demos I like so far:

My Weakness

Forget About You

P.S. Oh, and apparently this is his new single:

Vision Of Love (Album Version)

Meh, I don't like it as much as the demos...

I'm an Artist Pusher: Jay Everett Band

The band released a new video today! If you don't remember me posting about Jay Everett Band, look back at my first post (it's my first and biggest post - beware). But the songs I linked to are:

Nobody Else's Problems

Love Me

Jay's Song

I'm loving it already! Great job guys!

I'm an Artist Pusher: Paolo Nutini

Everyone who knows of him probably knows him from his biggest song, New Shoes, but here are two songs from that same album that I also like.

These Streets

Jenny Don't Be Hasty (Music Video Here)

I'm an Artist Pusher: Hellogoodbye

I love Hellogoodbye! They are so whimsical and floaty, and sometimes creepy sounding. Makes for a great band in my book!

Betrayed By Bones (Album Version)

This track is from their Ukelele Recordings EP. I love to see how they can shine without all their synths and computer polish.

Stuck To You

I used to listen to this song all the time when going to and from swim practice. I like the creepy sounding melody and chords. My favorite part starts at 1:12, if you care to notice.

Some of their more popular songs include:

Shimmy Shimmy Quarter Turn

Call n' Return

Baby, It's Fact

Here In Your Arms

Oh It Is Love

When We First Met
