I’ve been trying to re-vamp my music collection over the past few months and came across a song by a band called Great Northern in my iTunes Genius recommended music. I was intrigued by the originally recommended song and proceeded to download a few of their tracks. Today, when one of these songs was playing in iTunes, I noticed (again in Genius) that they had recently released a new single, “Houses.” The single is excellent and it inspired me to download the remaining songs from their 2007 debut album, Trading Twilight for Daylight. If you are into alternative music with strong melodies and catchy choruses, it is definitely for you.

The male vocalist is Solon Bixler from the band 30 Seconds to Mars and the female vocalist is Rachel Dolte from Whirlpool. Each of them are featured individually in some songs, but they also sing together in others. The music is fantastic no matter who is singing. Essential downloads include “Houses” (from their upcoming CD Remind Me Where the Light Is releasing on April 28) and “Home”, “Into the Sun”,  ”The Middle”, and “Low is a Height” from their debut.

I haven’t been this excited about a band for quite a while and I hope everyone checks them out!
