Music Monday: Old Postcards are Romantically Full of Fact

Happy Monday All!

If you don't know who those attractive humans are in the picture above, allow me to introduce you. They are (from left to right) Kate Cooper and Damon Cox of the band An Horse. They come from the land down under, and are finishing up their second album due out this April. (Yours truly simply cannot WAIT!)

Their first album, titled, "Rearrange Beds," has been on repeat in my car for weeks now. I just love it. Their sound is raw, but at it's core it's classic rock. Tracks like, "Camp Out," and "Postcards" have infectious chords that make me start jumping around like I'm in a one-woman mosh pit, accompanied by lyrics that make my eyes water. Not many artists can make me feel that way. In fact, no other artist makes me feel that way.

I got the chance to see them live last year when they toured with the very lovely and talented Kaki King. I was jumping around in my own one-woman-moshing-kind-of-way, not caring if I embarrassed the friend I went with.

Here are the videos for the two songs I mentioned:

Up first is "Camp Out"


Next is "Postcards," ENJOY!


If you like what you hear you should check out their website: http://www.anhorse.com/
It's got all sorts of good stuff like, a clip of a BRAND NEW SONG off of the new album "Walls."
(Or if you sign up for the mailing list, you get the FULL song for FREE. All you need is an e-mail address.)

They also have a Twitter, you can follow them with their Twitter Name: @anhorse
(It's worth it, they post funny things to each other. :] )

Welp, that's all for today folks!
I hope you have a most radical rest of the week!
Catch you on the flip side!
Much love,
XoXo
