The Cradle Share Eyes So Clear

I always feel like The Cradle is one of those overlooked bands that everyone instantly loves when they press play (I mean, does your band have 30 releases?!). The forthcoming album Laughing in My Sleep is a few weeks away still, but this heartfelt ballad seems to hit right at home almost immediately, for me at least. It’s a seemingly simple ballad, pounding on the piano with a nice strum layered on top to add emphatic punch. Songwriter Paco Cathcart is joined here by Lily from Palberta, which creates this soothing feel that washes over the listener. Please invest in this band; Paco’s one of the special voices out there; the new LP is out on August 21st via NNA Tapes.

New Music From Colour Revolt

So an old favorite of mine Colour Revolt is apparently still making new music?  I thought the band was calling it quits for sure… I mean after 3 members of the band leave, you get dropped by your label and your left only with a lead singer and a guitar player, you’d think it might be time to hang it up.  Well don’t tell that to leading man Jesse Coppenbarger.  The group is pressing on and ready to release their third LP in august entitled The Cradle.  Below you can find the first single from the upcoming album “Our Names”.  Glad to hear this group will be continuing to make solid tunes.
