A Motopony song for every mood:

beatboxdaily:

Seattle’s indie quartet Motopony are not to be missed. Their debut, self-titled album is an easy listen, filled with songs that are upbeat, songs that are slower, songs with strong lyrics, and songs that have strong folk influences. The album pretty much has a song for close to every mood, and yet you can listen to the whole album through no matter what mood you are in. The singer, Daniel Blue, has a very unique voice that is hard to compare to anything that I have heard out recently. The mix of Blue’s voice and odd tunings, along with co-producer Mike Ross’ skills really make for a great fit. AI

Time to nerd out and listen up! Yes.

Motopony - Seer 

I spent the time on my flights from Pittsburgh to LA yesterday catching up on tunes.  After carrying it around for weeks, I finally read last month’s MOJO (the one with Marley on the cover) and listened to a backlog of podcasts.  My “TO LISTEN” list is now about 50 deeper than it was.  Being a music nerd is tough work. 

Anyway, NPR Music turned me on to this Seattle-based band. I knew this track but I didn’t know where it came from.  I can’t decide whether I’ve heard it on ex.fm/hypem/turntable or if it was actually recorded in the late 70s and its “new” status is a ruse. Either way, this is straight out of the ZZ Top/CCR/Allman Brothers playbook and I love it. 

Get an acoustic take on another good tune free from the band at motoponymusic.com.
