Tag: We Are Scientists

The first week of March was a hot one for standout, memorable singles from that week’s top album releases, and easily one of the best sets of 2014’s top indie songs released so far this year, featuring a treasure trove of electrifying, original, infectious and amazingly diverse tunes. So, we’re just going to skip all of the talk and let the music speak for itself. The songs are somewhat in order of our – and others’ – favorites, including an emphasis on the tracks that have already produced a good buzz from indie music lovers across the states, and around the world. This playlist is meant, as they all really, to be listened to all the way through from the first to the last track. If you like to dance, there are some gem songs in that category as well. Enjoy.

We listened to this playlist of singles from March at least a half dozen times in the cafe; hopefully, it will be equally addicting to many of you. Highlighted artists and bands include Ghost Beach, Real Estate, The Men, Cataldo, Eagulls, Nothing, Eternal Summers, WhoMadeWho, Drive-By Truckers, We Are Scientists, Axxa/Abraxas, Lushes, Sally Seltmann, Each Other, Fenster, Trust, Mount Salem, and Ava Luna. More singles’ playlists of the top tracks of March 2014 are on the way. If you need one resource where you can always stop in to get the best of popular and DIY indie music, you found it.
