BSR Beats: Get Over the April Shower Blues
“Free” -Grafitti 6Founded in London in 2009, Grafitti 6’s mix of blues, indie and folk music makes for a beautiful sound. Their “Colours” album was released in 2013, and this particular song paints the picture of driving in the car with the windows down, wind blowing, sun shining and the hope of a summer that is yet to arrive. |

“Not Your Way” – MisterwivesIndie pop band Misterwives is based out of New York City and released their first studio album, “Our Own House,” halfway through February. The entire album carries a deep message, but the upbeat songs will make you want to get up and dance. |

“Say You Don’t Want It” – One Night OnlyOne Night Only is an indie rock/alternative rock band from Helmsley, North Yorkshire, England that formed in 2003. “Say You Don’t Want It” is the first song off of their second studio album, “One Night Only,” released in 2010. Though the band seems to have petered out since, they just released a new single in September 2014 from a new album that is predicted to be released soon. |

“Someone New” – HozierThe Irish, indie rock, blue, and soul, singer/songwriter Hozier released his first, self-titled album in September 2014. Best known for his single “Take Me To Church,” Hozier seems to brighten the mood of the album with “Someone New,” although the music video seems to tell the opposite. Nonetheless, “Someone New” is a catchy track that is easy to fall in love with.. |

“You and I” – Ingrid MichaelsonThe indie pop singer released “Be OK” in 2008 and has since released three more albums, making a total of six studio albums. The use of the ukulele always seems to shout spring and summer. So, keep that window rolled down, turn the stereo up and keep driving to the place that you love most. |
