I realized I haven't talked about one of the best new bands of the year yet. I'll settle this now:
Goodnight ARgent is an alternative pop band from Pasco, WA, influenced by the likes of OneRepublic, Maroon5, Andrew Belle, Erik Hassle and Coldplay.
The band -Chase Thompson (vocals, keys) and Tyler McMullen (vocals, guitar), with Andrew Luttrell on bass and Michael Bjur on drums- took the Grand Prize in the John Lennon International Songwriting Competition, and also received awards from both the Billboard and the International Songwriting Competition.

And it's really no hard to understand why. Just listen to the single "Battlegrounds" once, and let the wonderful melody, the wise arrangements, the haunting refrain conquer you.
The "Ignorance Is Paradise" EP's been released last March for SoulFound Entertainment and believe me, there's no sign of a bad track in it!
The opener "Vagabond", the title track, "Don't Get Sentimental", "Devil's Own Daughter" could all become huge radio hits, thanks to their great, moving hooks, the quality of the songwriting and the craftsmanship of the players.
Please listen to their music now on their Facebook page or on their webpage at goodnightargent.com.
