Solid Winter.

As the winter drags on here in Michigan I have been spending a lot of time looking at bands on myspace. I play in a band that travels and so I love to check and see what other artists are up to around the country. A few that I have been loving are:

Lake- Olympia, WA
http://www.myspace.com/lakemusicmusic

I first heard them while looking for labels for my band Happy Hour. After finding them I was hooked on their pop song "Higher Than Merry" http://www.browninteriourmusic.com/mp3s/lake/lake_higherthanmerry.mp3
I do not know that much about the band, but I have to say you should really check out their myspace and give them a shot.

The Bicyles- Toronto, ON

Much Lake I found these guys while searching for Labels. There is some great humor with this band. I pretty much have to tap my foot while listening to them. I really like "I know We Have to be Apart" on their myspace. The drums are very interesting, and I love the female vocal. Along with four tracks The Bicycles also have a few videos on their myspace as well. Also you can access their website via the link.

Mitch Vermeersch- Kalamazoo, MI
http://www.myspace.com/mitchvermeersch

Though I am not a huge fan of the production of the tracks on his myspace I would have to say I visit his site a couple times a week to check for new songs. He just took down the track "My Cold Cup of Coffee". That was one of my favorite tracks from the past year that I found. The production on that song was a bit tighter than the others, but still have that open feel to it. If you are looking for quality lyrics and great feeling check out Mitch.
