The Lumineers

The Lumineers had their big break with their song Ho Hey in 2012. Their sound has that keltic sound to it that seems to be making a  surface in the music industry. The Lumineers got their big break around the same time the Imagine Dragons and Mumford & Sons got theirs. The Lumineers have recently released a song called Stubborn Love. I'm sure The Lumineers will make it big in the music industry they have sound. Hopefully everyone else thinks they do too.

Imagine Dragons.

With their song It's Time being their big break Imagine Dragons already have an album out called Night Visions.  This album features their 3 singles It's Time, Radioactive, and Demons. Imagine Dragons are currently on tour. Their sounds is similar to Mumford & Sons but they have their own twist to it. They use instruments that many bands so not use so it gives them that original sound they have.




Here is the video for their song Radioactive which is on their album Night Visions.

Ed Sheeran

 Ed Sheeran has written many songs. He has helped Taylor Swift with her recent album. Also he has written multiple songs for the british-irish boyband One Direction. Whenever he performs the whole room is silent. That is the kind of effect his music has on people. Most of the time it's just him and his guitar and personally I think that is the best way for someone to perform. He has an album out now called '+'.


                                       Ed's song Lego House.

The Vamps.

The Vamps are a british indie-pop band that have recently been signed to the Mercury record label.Brad(lead vocalist), James(guitarist), and Tristan(drummer), are the band members.
They were signed in November and have been working on a album and planning a tour ever since. They have been posting covers of the latest songs from One Direction to Taylor Swift. Every time I here them sing it has a different sound and each time it's phenomenal. If you want something new to listen to that everyone doesn't know about yet in America, I do suggest The Vamps.
They have a great sound.

Panic! At The Disco


Formed in '04 in Las Vegas Panic! At The Disco consisted of Brendon Urie, Spencer Smith, Ryan Ross, and John Walker.  Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy signed them to his label Fueled By Ramen.   They were together for the first two albums but after the tour for the second album they went separate ways due to musical differences. Now the band consist of Brendon Urie, Spencer Smith, Dallon Weeks and Ian Crawford. Their albums are A Fever You Can't Sweat Out , Pretty. Odd. , and Vices & Virtues. Their first single I Write Sins Not Tragedies is what made them so big.
They have gotten rid of the exclamation point a few times but the fans always beg to bring it back so, that's what they do. Panic! At The Disco is one of my favorite bands and always will be because, they always have a different sound for every album. So the band always keeps you guessing on what they will sound like next.
Panic! At The Disco is currently on tour in the UK.

Fall Out Boy.

Fall Out Boy was formed in 2001 in Illinois and the band consist of Patrick Stump, Joe Trohman,  Andy Hurley, and Pete Wentz.

My personal opinion on the band is that they are great. They have a great sound and are finally making a come back after they took a break a few years ago. Their new single My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark is amazing. It is the perfect song to come back with. Personally I can't wait for the album. They are already doing a spring tour and it is sold out.  A few years ago before they took a break I went to see them in concert for my first concert. They had Gym Class Heroes and Plain Whits T's opening up for them and the show was great
Throughout the years Pete Wentz started a record label and signed Fall Out Boy to his label. They have also won multiple awards for their music. Their music videos entertaining I could watch them over and over again.
But after the band took their break Patrick Stump made some of his own music and Pete went through a very public divorce with Ashley Simpson.  Joe and Andy kinda stayed out of the spotlight during this time. Lately they have been meeting secretly and writing and recording songs so that out of no where the would release a single and let their fans know that they are back. 


Here is their new single My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark.

Maroon5

From She Will Be Loved and This Love to One More Night and Daylight Maroon5 have been topping the charts with almost every single they have released. Maroon5 has always been one of my favorite bands because of their style of music. It's not exactly pop but its not alternative but if you had to place in a genera it would be pop. But to me according the way pop music sounds today that is the last thing Maroon5 would be. Now days pop music is either computer generated music or real instruments but the vocals will have some kind of auto tune. Maroon5 plays real instruments and you can tell and they don't use auto tune like other artist.  Maroon5 is an amazing band they have something that everyone will like no matter what your taste in music is.
