We Are Indigo

I’m a sucker for all things acoustic and brilliant collabs. I appreciate music with some substance, which is how my love for Josh Cocktail grew. So I was excited to hear about this latest link up with my boys Dean and Ravo (download their mixtape A to B, you don’t want to sleep on it). If you have not been put onto this duo yet, the time is now. Dean and Ravo are two Boston College graduates now living in NYC. Their refreshing sound is paving a new way for hip-hop and cross-genre music. Great things to come from these guys…

Follow them both on Twitter —> @JoshCocktail and @Dean_Ravo

This next track may be a close favorite of mine from the darker half of Dean and Ravo, a track with “DaDean29″ and Benjamin Lamson

Angus & Julia Stone did a cover of this song from Grease. They perform it here live for Rolling Stone. Love it! Check out Just A Boy below, one of my favorite tracks by them.

I posted about Kina Grannis doing a cover of Imogen Heap’s “Let Go.” Well, she’s got a few more! Not only is she beautiful, but she’s got that voice and plays the guitar. Her album Stairwells is actually available on iTunes right now. She was in Boston and I missed her! I have a feeling I’ll be listening to her for a while… she’s on that level. Check out her music video for her track “Valentine.”

This was one of my favorite songs for years, especially in the Winter. I loved listening to it in the car when it was snowing. This cover below is amazing. This girl’s voice is beautiful.

My heart melts when I hear acoustic with the piano. love her still.

Andy Suzuki & The Method take a fresh new take on the lyrics and melody to Drake’s “Best I Ever Had.” I love these guys. Check it out!

Ah the magic of Acoustic music. This kid seems a little young to be singing about inventing sex…. hm…. but nonetheless, he does the song justice. And who doesn’t appreciate a great cover?
Listen to the original Trey Songz ft. Drake – I Invented Sex
