New single from Hi-Lo & In Between

The great Finnish folk rock / americana band Hi-Lo & In Between is getting ready to release their third album entitled We Are Not The Wind (due to be released by Lumpeela julkaisut in october). I’m really looking forward to this, because I loved the second album. The first single A Clear Silence is now out and available. I admit that I had some doubts when I was listening to it for the first time. Maybe because the chorus sounded more like Lasse Lindh than folk to me and I wasn’t expecting that. However, now I’ve been listening to it over and over again with headphones and I’m falling in love with it so badly that I better start saving money for an engagement ring.

Video of the Day #74: Samae Koskinen

You won’t get a big return, if you bet that this song will take the song of the year award here at onechord.net. Hän, jolla on kaikki from Samae’s latest solo album has been the biggest favourite to win that award since I heard it for the first time. Now it also has a music video where nothing or everything happens.

Hurricane Fighter Plane

Australian pop hero Joe Algeri introduced Hurricane Fighter Plane to me and I was immediately hooked. If you happen to be into 60s pop/garage/powerpop and spend your days reading the wonderful Shindig! magazine, I think this might be your new favourite band. They come from Fremantle/Perth, their new self-titled EP has just been released and you can buy it from their bandcamp. Extremely highly recommended I would say and I will definitely buy it myself once I figure out do I settle for the download or buy a physical copy. Just listen to this song called It Won’t Last. This is just bloody brilliant.

There’s couple of cool videos as well. This first one is also the great opening track of the EP.
