Thursday "Morning" Music Shuffle – Skinny Jeans Mix

It’s the late night edition of the Morning Music Shuffle.  The shuffle was from this morning, the post drops now!


First up, we have Sugar and the Hi Lows from their self-titled album that came out back in February with See It For Yourself. Sugar and the Hi Lows are Trent Dabbs and Amy Stroup who are Nashville residents and part of the Ten out of Tenn collective.  They play a rootsy mix of vintage soulful music.  





Next up we have experimental hip-hop artists from Toronto, Valued Customer with their song, Frank Ocean from the Album Voice/Drum which came out (no pun intended) back in June.

Next we have another New Jersey band which came to us via Popatunes.  It’s Conor and the Stonehill Kids with the title track from their 2011 EP called Don’t Move.

Here is a video for a different song by the band…


And finally, we have a song from one of current Featured Artists who are in the running for Band of the Month (polls now open – here).  On this shuffle we have True Mad North taking it into a rocking country direction with Glass of Gasoline of their self-titled album that came out late last year.
