Featured Friday Music Shuffle - Territories Mix

Guess what - it's time to vote for your band of the month:  Go here to vote!


Today we shuffle up songs from the final three of our featured Artists.  The other 7 appeared on the previous two Feature Fridays.  Here and Here .

This week we turn the spotlight on three very different bands with a shuffle that highlights the diversity found here on Ear to the Ground:

Galen Wade is a mid-day DJ on Radio Station WSBS in Massachusetts.  When he's not spinning tunes, and giving away food-based prizes, he's making tons of great music.  Here at Ear to the Ground, we've followed Galen around for some time and have had music he's worked on in our morning shuffles a time or two.  He primarily releases music via Soundcloud, and it through that site that he hooked up with Wade Walker. Thanks to the marvels of this magical age, the nearly two thousand miles that separate the two Wades, they have come together to form The Holograms who are not to be mistaken for Holograms - the Swedish band.  Today we have Make Believe, a nifty instrumental with cool electronica mixed with a bit of hip-hop sounds.  Check it out:




Next, we have a epic sounding indie-rock ballad from Germany by way of Canada. Rooftop Runners - Streets off of the band's We Are Here (from earlier this year) offers brilliant, passionate vocals combined with music that brings us all down to the Streets.

   


And finally, SIRS are a hard rocking band with a great sound, who come from Chicago.   Boo Hoo is the title from the band's EP which was released just about a year ago.  

 
Here a video for another song from the EP
