One of my young wards came to me with this song: "Stephen, you have got to hear this song. You are gonna love it. It is has a sound that is early U2 mixed with The Smiths!" I bounced back with- "hmmm, let's see. Early U2 was guitar driven anthems & The Smiths produced tight, little art songs about being miserable. I think it would be an unlikely crossbreed!' I get home & connect to Itunes. My boy is correct. U2 + The Smiths! I am zany for this song. Repeated listening makes me love it more. It is one of those songs that seems like the songwriter has been reading my diary.
The Temper Trap (great band name, they should do a cover of The Tender Trap) is made up of 4 members from Melbourne, Australia. I also hear a bit of Radiohead, Prince, & Massive Attack, but I think that they are onto an original sound. Sweet Disposition is sweet inspiration for spring music mixes.
