I fought against writing this post for over a week. I feel like I haven’t written enough posts on this blog to justify duplicating topics already, but I just can’t stop watching this band on You Tube. These guys are like audio-visual crack. I was even inspired to spend $$$ on them.
This awesome t-shirt is on it’s way to me as I write this.

Original Songs

• Red Hands – I didn’t mention this one earlier but it is a solid song with yet another amazing video. Check out the unedited version afterwards to see just how much effort these guys put into it.
• Gang of Rhythm – I can’t hold still when I listen to this song. I especially like the section at the beginning where they introduce each instrument (@ 0:44 – 1:18).

Covers

• Reckoning Song (One Day) – This is one of those songs that can get firmly stuck in your head for days. The video features an intriguing trio of Sarahs and Giannis jumping, clapping and headbanging for your viewing pleasure.
• I Knew You Were Trouble – I’m not a huge Taylor Swift fan but this cover is a real auditory treat. Don’t let the simple video fool you. This is the band’s newest video at the moment and it’s already getting a lot of attention from the likes of Perez Hilton, CBC and The Toronto Star.

I love discovering new favourite songs and bands.

A friend recently introduced me to Walk off the Earth, a Canadian band from Burlington, Ontario and they kind of blew my mind.

They became YouTube-famous for their cover of “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye. The video features all five band members playing one guitar at the same time.

Their channel is full of well-produced videos of covers and original songs. The best part is that they also have a lot of talent. I love their voices and harmonies. The somewhat creepy beard-guy is also a nice touch.

Here’s another very creative video for the theme song to Weeds: “Little Boxes” where everything is made of cardboard, including most of the instruments!

So far my favourite of their original songs is “Summer Vibe”.

That should be enough to get you started. There are lots more great songs to check out.
