If you are able to listen to such a neat Spice Girls cover and not enjoy it, I will be very impressed and personally buy you five pizzas. Also, one of the most energetic live performers I have ever seen.

Toured with Lorde. That rhymed. I was fortunate enough to see him in concert and he is an insanely talented violinist and captivating musician. But also, toured with Lorde.

Another singer from the UK. Her music almost sounds enchanting or medieval.... what, how? Nobody knows, so it is best to just listen and try not to think too much about it (which is also how I approach studying).

Rad band from Brooklyn, comprised of three sisters and their friend. Recently released their second LP. Badda Bing, Badda Boom. That is not the title of the album, that is just me wrapping up the description.
