Got that Friday Feeling.

Just a little warning before we being with today's 2 acts. I will not be updating tomorrow or Sunday because it's my university's Summer Festival, the biggest event in the social calender lasting from 1pm tomorrow until 5am Sunday Morning so I will be very hungover/ sleeping all day Sunday. FOr anyone who is curious, The Automatic will be headlining it.

Anyway enough of my life and on with the music. For the first band we find ourselves in Syracuse, New York with a group called Theft. Theft came together early this year and the band members are Jamie with her serene vocals, Benjamin with his expert guitar playing and backing vocals, Reuben on bass who creates excellent basslines and also backing vocals and Nick who plays the drums expertly. All 4 sound like professional musicians who have been working together for years, not just a few months. I'm excited to see with what they come up with in the next few years.

Now we move 3000 miles west to Los Angeles, California and a poppy rocky trio called Good on Paper. The three members of the band are Nate, Rebecca and David. There is something familiar about Good on Paper but at the same time they have something different. You can't really place your finger on what that difference is there but you feel it everytime you listen to them. Give them a listen and relax.
