The Temper Trap – “Sweet Disposition”

This amazingly beautiful track just feels right.  The soft vocals, pounding drum beat and overall airy sound makes it a song that begs to be listened to.  These Australian boys have a great thing going with their album, Conditions.  “Sweet Disposition” is popping up all over the place and I was reminded of its brilliance when it sprang up in the film (500) Days of Summer.  I guarantee that this track will find its way into heavy rotation on your play list.

Erik Hassle – “Hurtful”

Swedish Fish are my favorite candies.  I guess it is no surprise that I like Erik Hassle.  I mean, he is from Sweden and his hair is bright red.  Glaring similarities to my favorite candies aside, I really am digging his single, “Hurtful”.  His style reminds me a lot of the poppy soul singing of Gavin DeGraw.  This track is sweet.  Sweet like candy.

Kina Grannis – “Valentine”

Back in 2007, Kina Grannis got big time exposure when her track ““Message From Your Heart” won an on-line contest and was aired during the Super Bowl.  97 million views got a glimpse of Kina.  Not a bad start to a music career, huh?  Kina’s style embodies the sunny California coffeehouse scene.  “Valentine” is a warm and fuzzy kinda song that is good not only in February, but all year round.
