French indie band and Grammy award winners ’Phoenix‘ have caused an uprising since their latest album ‘Wolfgang Amadeus’ was released almost a year ago.  The alternative rockers have been on a non-stop tour since then and just to show how much they appreciate their fans they have recently released a free live recording from their gig in Sydney.  The ‘Live in Sydney’ compilation contains eight tracks including favorites ‘Lisztomania’ and ‘1901′.  You can download the live recording here.  Tracklisting after the jump…  Thanks Phoenix!

Mayer Hawthorne – I Wish it would Rain (video)

Keeping up with Stonesthrow, Mayer Hawthrone’s new video ‘I Wish it Would Rain’ was recently released.  If you haven’t heard the album ‘A Strange Arrangement’, Hawthorne is a musical genius injecting soul and jazz influences into his own works and bringing back classic sounds of Motown.  Not only does the young man from Ann Arbor, Michigan produce all his songs, but he also sings and plays many of the instruments on each of the tracks.  I think that it’s amazing to see and hear what this man is capable of.  Watch his new video ‘I Wish it would Rain’.

Sade ‘Soldier of Love’

sade_soldier_of_love

Through the 80’s and 90’s singer/songwriter Sade gave us massive hit songs like Smooth Operator, Sweetest Taboo and No Ordinary Love.  Till this day those songs are still recognized and played around the world.  We think it’s amazing to see talented artists that can withstand time and are able to continue to produce exceptional music. 

Last month Sade released her 6th full length album, ‘Soldier of Love’.  Reviews have been very mainly positive by music critics and after the first week the album sold over 500,000 copies in the United States alone, making it her first debut at number one.  With her first single ‘Soldier of Love’ Sade shows us that she still has what it takes to be a great artist.
