Under The Radar 01: Hush

Today I'm starting a series of posts which will highlight a musician you probably haven't heard of.  They will range from total unsigned indies who probably have never been hear by more than 1000 people to bands that tour, but don't have national attention.  I may underestimate the popularity of the performer on some of them.

I'm featuring the song more than the band or musician.  I've also got to say I'm not posting these as interesting videos eventhough I'm providing the video.  Just easier that way.

And, of course, I will talk a little bit about the song, musician, and video:

Okay... here we go:

HUSH

Automatic Loveletter

SONG:  I like the strength of the strong within the ballad context.  I like the melody.  Seems like it could be a hit song.

BAND/PERFORMER:  I actually like the unfinished quality to the singing.  I like the fact that the singing sounds like the moment of anger which the song is about.

VIDEO:  I don't care for the video much, it feels it is a little "by the book," and carries none of the originality or passion of the song.  The shots feel a little home video trying to be "like that video."

However... you might enjoy the song.... here it is:
