Like her namesake, Novi is a new artist that is on a fast-track to stardom.
So here is some new music to add to your current workout playlist because music is a great motivator...especially when you'd rather be sitting your ass on the couch, in your sweats, eating ketchup chips and Skor bars instead of working out (so not talking about myself...yes, yes I am).
So here are some 'I've gotta see that again' videos with a musical slant that I came across this week while wasting time....umm researching on the web.

Where the Streets Have No Name - U2 cover - by Matthew Mayfield
So I few days ago I was having a music 'who are you listening to now that you love' conversation with a friend of mine (we'll call him 'King') and he mentioned having newly discovered a UK band. The band is not so new but it was new to him.
I felt something impossible for me to explain in words. Then, when they took her away, it hit me. I got scared all over again and began to feel giddy. Then it came to me… I was a father. ~Nat King Cole
So Sunday is Father's Day and I thought what better way to celebrate than with a list of the 'Hottest Dads In Music'...a totally self-serving list I realize but it works for me and I'm OK with it.
So if I left anyone out...feel free to leave your hot dad choices!
"Beautifully crafted Pop-Folk songs that capture a tremendous sense of effortless energy and emotion showing a song writing ability well beyond their years and far above that of you're average band. Undoubtedly they have potential to go far..." ~BBC West Midlands
I often sing the praises of DJs...how they can seamlessly connect layers of music in one constant flow, as they create and maintain the mood and energy of the crowd and listeners they are out to entertain.
Bottom line they have mad skillz and I wish I possessed that talent. But for the record, I did kick some ass at the whole creating a mixed tape thing....I was lightening fast at that record stop, pause technique on my Sharp Dual AM/FM Cassette Player Boombox. Word.
