Kaleo- My new fave band for the moment

Todd and I were heading home from having dinner the other night in the car when I heard a song on the radio that I was really enjoying. I  Shazam’d it with my app so I would have the name of the band and but their song off itunes.  I am a fan of the band Black Key’s and so originally I thought it might be a new song from them. It was cool to discover that it was by a band I’d never heard of.  I love finding new artists !!
The bands name is Kaleo and they are from Iceland. The song that was playing was called No Good.  When I read about them on Wikipedia- realized that they just started their band in 2012 and the song I heard was just released  this year in 2016.   I came across another one of their songs called Way down we go and it was so good! Apparently its been played on a few TV shows in background, etc.

So what do you think? I like the lead’s voice and cant tell that they’re from another country.  I am enjoying their songs!! I got kind of hung up on a new band and then i move onto the next.  Thats Ok though because i love music and all it does for me.

    My brother tried to turn me on to them just a few days ago. I'm on the fence... Some songs I liked a lot, others I wanted to strangle the vocalist and replace him with someone with a lower voice...

    Hi, Holli!

    Heck yeah - these guys are fantastic! I never heard of Kaleo before. They perform a refreshingly different, soulful, multilayered style of rock. I would describe the band as a mix of rock and blue-eyed soul. I went to YouTube and watched the official video for "No Good." "No Good" is nothing but great - all three of these songs are great - and I thank you for introducing this fine band from the land of Riley Blue! :)

    Enjoy the rest of your week, dear friend Holli!

    I can't listen to this at the moment but I'm going to bookmark it and check them out. I've heard some great Nordic/Scandinavian bands, so I think I'll like these guys.
