Fresh Friday: Never Trust A Happy Song

The Fresh Friday portion of the CrossCurrent blog covers stunning musical acts that continue to make headlines and tour the world.


It was probably about a month ago that I first heard rock group Grouplove on the radio. I only wish I would have heard of them sooner! In fact, the profile video I decided to include at the end of this blog was produced over a year ago.

Ok, so maybe this band isn't for everyone. But music is so personal, a form of expression that can be appreciated by all. In fact, it's hard to argue that this band isn't full of passion when they're jumping around on stage, singing their lungs out, and hyping the crowd. I don't think I've ever seen anyone play the tambourine in their hands and on the floor before now...

How awesome is this? Grouplove bringing down the house and dancing like maniacs on Letterman:

Grouplove's debut album, Never Trust A Happy Song, serves up twelve songs that truly rock. I'd recommended them to fans of Maroon 5, Kings of Leon, and Aerosmith. To me the album sounds like a crazy blend of the three bands with the addition of a female singer. It's just great fun, I'd love to blast this on the beach or on a road trip.
