You'll quickly get sucked into the constant beat and guaranteed-to-get-stuck-in-your-head three to four minute songs that are sweet and calm, but beware, Little Joy's easy listening is only part of it. The band, consisting of Los Angeles' Rodrigo Amarante, Binki Shapiro, and Fabrizio Moretti (of the Strokes), is sure to have you even more in love with the light, breezy feel of the sitting-around-the-bonfire guitar and the vocals you can sway to.
Other songs by other artists that you should try before the weekend and possibly pass on to others:
*Everything Turns to You- Lonely, Dear. *Never Had Nobody Like You- M. Ward *The Howling- the Phantom Band *Xavia- the Submarines (Also check out the soundtrack to Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, this song is featured on it!) *Sugar and Song- Thieves Like Us *That's Not My Name- the Ting Tings *Feel.Love.Thinking.Of.- Faunts
So, I'm the girl who you see with the ipod in her hand, fumbling around in her bag for her next reading adventure, and who's sitting at the table in her own world while the others chat. I'm the girl who you hear talking about the latest albums, the recent This American Life, or Twilight news. The girl you see tapping her foot to a Shins' song in the grocery store while the old lady in the produce gives her queer looks. Or, the one who pulls out her writing notebook in the middle of a really important speech to jot down the newest twist in her latest story. The one who's a nerdfighter, and proud of it. The quiet girl who's frizzy hair is uncontrolable as it falls into her face as she finds the Death Cab For Cutie playlist on her red third generation nano. Yeah, I'm that girl. An individual, if I do say so myself.
