Last week wore me down and by Friday I didn’t have much left. Then, I open my computer to see what new music has been introduced to the world and I spy a new single from Biffy Clyro (fave band alert!).  I press play on “Instant History” and suddenly my world’s problems melt away and for a little over 3 minutes, everything is great.  Between the Biffy Clyro single, Badflower finally releasing “Move Me”, and the Alanis Morrisette version of “Smiling” from the Jagged Little Pill musical, I’d say it was New Music Friday for the win!

This week in LA music seems equally bountiful with top bands and artists (Colony House, Jared & The Mill, Patrick Droney) as well as a slew of up and comers (Tall Heights, The Amazons, Jax Anderson, etc.).  I hope to see everyone out at some shows:
