Sing, Sing a Song Saturday

Sing, Sing a Song Saturday is all about me discovering something that is different. I don't want to post things that you and I have more than likely heard before. I want to find something different. It could be from another country, someone singing from the streets of NY, and more.

One band that I've heard my students talk about Naked and Famous. They are a band from Auckland, New Zealand. I had no clue what kind of music they played, so I decided to look them up. They have 5 members in the band. They formed in 2008 when Thom Powers and Alisa Xayalith recorded EPs with engineer Aaron Short, a fellow student at Auckland’s MAINZ music college.

They play alternative rock. To me it has an 80s vibe. Styles come and go. The 80s seems to be back.

    I heard a song by an Australian singer I thought you would like, but now I can't remember the name of it. The band was "Sippy" something. I heard the music because it's the theme music of a new Australian post apocalyptic movie called "The Rover." I will have to look it up again.

    My Daughter was a child of the 80s so she would probably love this.
