discover: young brother

I have this really annoying habit of finding a song that I like and listening to it till my ear drums bleed (figuratively of course). Man Up has fallen under this category in the past few days (Lean On was at the top but it looks like Man Up has indeed, manned up (is that a thing? I don't know...) and is taking over pretty quickly).

Okay, so this is Dalton Diehl, also known as Young Brother:

He is from Nashville and his main genre is alt-pop I guess. He's influenced by pop acts like Jessie Ware, Lorde, and all their cohorts in awesome and his songs are essentially anthems. No, seriously, you guys should listen to Man Up right now.

He released his EP Kamikaze and it is brilliant. The title track is alt-pop brilliance, but the song that really grabbed my attention was Man Up. It's a song with a message that still fits right into any fun-loving playlist. The whole thing is a mishmash of songs that have bits of electronic music and pop thrown in, and it sounds like they are co-habiting on the tracklist. They work well together, but they are also amazing on their own. You will feel every single track in your heart (and sometimes your feet)
