DNCE Drop “DNCE” Video

We’ve been waiting for a recorded version of this song since we first heard it and DNCE have finally answered our calls!  Joe, Jack, Jin-Joo, and Cole just dropped the video for their self-titled hype song “DNCE.”  If you’ve been lucky to see them live you know the band will usually kick off their set with this song and with good reason – it will get you HYPE!

Just like their name and previous songs, this one makes us want to DNCE around no matter where we are, and sing along at the top of our lungs.  This song is definitely one we’ll be blasting all summer long  with it’s funky bass, and Joe’s falsetto!   Watch the official video below.

The Friday Five: 2015 Albums of the Year (Pop)

It feels like we just wrote our 2014 Albums of the Year post about 5 minutes ago, but it’s time to look back on our favorite albums of 2015!   Here are our picks for our top pop albums of the year.  We included 2 EPs because they were too good NOT to and we’re crossing our fingers for full albums from them next year!

1.  Selena Gomez – “Revival”
After a public split from The Biebs, Selena Gomez is back! “Revival” was well worth the wait.

2. Carly Rae Jepsen – “E·MO·TION”
Carly Rae is easily one of the most underestimated pop artists, and one that certainly knows how to make a throwback album that sounds like it came straight out of the 80s.  (in a good way) 

3. The Vamps – “Wake Up”
The Vamps are poised to take over America with their new album and it’s about time – they’re so good!

4. Hilary Duff – “Breathe In, Breathe Out”
Hilary Duff’s 5th studio album was well worth the (long!) wait.

5. DNCE – “SWAAY”
This EP makes us want to sway and dance to every song!  We can’t wait for a full album from Joe, Cole, JinJoo, and Jack.

5. Jake Miller – “Rumors”
This EP was one of our favorites that came out in 2015 – every track is a JAM!  We’re anxious for new music from Jake Miller.

DNCE Celebrate The Release of “SWAAY” EP at Knitting Factory

DNCE celebrated the release of their first EP, “SWAAY,” with an intimate show at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.  Although the EP had been out for less than 24 hours by the time of the show, the crowd seemed to know every word to tracks like “Toothbrush” and “Jinx.”  The room was packed early for a surprise secret DJ set by a masked DJ,  rumored to have been Joe Jonas.

DNCE put on a very energetic show with all member sharing mikes, rotating around the stage and engaging the crowd in any way possible.  After seeing Joe Jonas on tour in such large scale arena shows with the Jonas Brothers, his onstage energy and charisma work just as well in small club show settings.  We love the dynamic between the group – bass player/keyboardist Cole Whittle is so much fun to watch, guitarist Jin Joo Lee really knows how to shred, and of course flawless Jack Lawless rounds up the group on drums.  DNCE write fun, catchy, upbeat songs that make up want to, well, DANCE!
