discover weekly (4/21/2018)

this week’s song is pretty important because it comes from a band that was one of the reasons why i fell in love with the music scene. released on november 9th, ‘stupid’ by “internet sensation” milkk is a song of the century. ‘stupid’ is filled with chill synth-beats, background drums, and frontman pat kiloran’s heavenly voice (that’s not a weird thing to say… right?)

this song makes me want to just sit outside under the stars and be wrapped in someone’s arms while a cool wind blows around us. the lyrics are so incredibly raw, and the vulnerability in this almost made me cry the first time i listened to it. but it’s not just this song that has those qualities and i had a hard time picking one of milkk’s songs because all of them are absolutely unbelievable, and if you haven’t already, i highly suggest you give their music a spin!

søld øut: the beginning – an introduction

chances are if you’re reading this, music has left at least some sort of impact on your life. i know that’s true for me.

——————————

it’s incredibly rare for me to go a day without listening to music, often the same album on repeat, for hours on end. whether it be in the car, or in the shower, or while i’m drowning in homework, or i just need some peace, music surrounds me. it is the one constant i have in my life right now and because of that, it is so incredibly important to me. i wanted to start this webzine as a way for me to share the songs and bands and artists that have become a part of me with other people who love music just as much as i do, and i hope i am able to achieve that on a greater scale than i could ever anticipate.

before i really jump into this, i want to introduce myself a little more and explain the direction of this blog:

my name is amber and i’m from the great state of texas, more specifically just outside of the dallas area. my favorite things in life include live music (obvi!), traveling, big cities, my friends, sunflowers, netflix, hipster coffee, and my cat. some of my most-played artists are twenty one pilots, judah and the lion, lemaitre, jon bellion, lauren daigle, and the 1975. lastly, after i graduate high school in about a year and a half, i am hoping to study music business with an emphasis on international mb at belmont university in nashville, tn.

my plan for søld øut is to publish a post every week with new artists/songs i discovered over the last seven days, kinda like spotify’s “release radar”; write reviews for newly released albums; talk about concerts i’ve attended or ones i’m about to attend; and (fingers crossed for the near future) have some interviews with small bands.
