Music Monday,

And here's another edition of Music Monday!  This week is about boys, because I've been single for way too long and found three groups of boys that you might like, musically.  Don't worry, no Justin Bieber or 1D this week!

1.  Try Hard - 5 Seconds of Summer
If you don't know 5 Seconds of Summer, where have you been?!  These four Aussie cuties headlined for One Direction's "Take Me Home" tour and are preparing a full-length album, scheduled to be released this year.  And listening to their few singles online, I can surely say that Luke, Michael, Ashton, and Calum are going to be going places!  And for those of you coming around and are a part of the 5SOSFam, I'm definitely an Ashton girl.  I guess you could say that though they all play guitar, I'm into drummers. ;)


2.  Make Out - Rixton
So, I shamelessly watch "Wild n' Out" on some nights.  And a few nights ago, this real catchy song came on during the credits and it was from this particular band, Rixton.  I searched them up online and they've done a few covers, but their first single is what has got me hooked.  These four Brits, Jake, Charley, Danny, and Lewi, have made a upbeat and summery tune that has been put on repeat since I discovered it.  And the parodies of all the music videos add a special touch (videos stretching from Rihanna's 'Stay' to Miley's iconic 'Wrecking Ball'... it's seriously worth a watch).  They've really deserved their title of MTV's Artist to Watch.  These boys are gonna go places!


3.  Story of my Life - Charlie Puth
Yes, I know it's a cover.  Yes, I know it's really unoriginal to review covers.  But it's my blog and I don't really care.  Now, if you've been keeping up with my Music Monday segment, you know that Charlie is probably one of my favorite independent artists online.  I really like this song on it's own, but the fact that Charlie can strip a song and make it a beautiful piece blows me away every time.  As always, an amazing job from Charlie and definitely go check out his other music!
