Oh, Whinnie Williams, how can we count the ways we love you? Remember the first time you heard Lily Allen and it felt so magical and new? Or the first time you heard Ellie Goulding, perhaps? Well, Whinnie Williams’ Bad Girl EP is just as wonderful and exciting, primed to give you a rush like…

“She ate my heart / I love New York City,” sings Lenny Kravitz, oh so passionately, on “New York City,” one of the best cuts from his primo new album Strut. Roughly ten years ago on his Baptism record he did a tune called “California,” putting the golden state up on a pedestal, the song…

Sweet, sweet, sweet, holy mother of bliss! Damn, if “My Beat,” the debut single by husband and wife team Kenny and Laura Cash, is not the catchiest song we’ve heard all week!

Swedish indie-pop trio Like Swimming’s Structures is easily one of the year’s finest releases of any genre and a highly impressive debut at that. I come across a lot of great music, constantly checking out new stuff to review here on Love is Pop, but sometimes artists tend to blend together. I’ll get so many…

“Even if I’m hurting, I keep moving on,” sings actress/singer/songwriter Cassie Steele on “Dreams,” the new single from her recently released EP entitled Patterns. The entire EP is an electro-pop masterpiece and “Dreams” is a shining example of that. Except that it’s not so sunshiny, veering more on the melancholic side of the emotional spectrum.…

“Just breathe and breathe once again,” sings Chad Hollister during his latest tune, “Breathe.” It’s a lovely little song that can lift your spirits on a bad day. In fact, I was having a bad day after discovering that I accidentally installed Malware with a Chrome or Firefox extension yesterday. This really freaked me out…
