🎶 Gene & Ashlees DailyJams For Alt2k Wednesday! Picking Tunes From 2000’s Alternative Rock Every Wednesday! 🎸
Phoenix (2009) & Fitz and The Tantrums (2010)
No vlog today, just will be sharing some of our fav 2000’s alternative tunes! As usual we will each pick a different band/artist & pick one album by each band. We’ll pick a DailyJam & BonusJam off record so two tunes each!
First up Ashlee picks the band Phoenix
And there 2009 released album “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix” one of alt/indie rock’s most popular artists in the 2009-2011 era. Picking the song “Lisztomania” as DailyJam! For BonusJam it’s the song “1901”.
I (Gene) pick the band Fitz and the Tantrums
Who have kinda a Motown vibe honestly. It’s a very interesting sound and not like most alt2k stuff I pick, but different is good sometimes. Let me know if you can hear the Motown influence I mentioned. The album was released in 2010 9 months after Ashlee’s pick, and was titled “Pickin' Up the Pieces”. For DailyJam I pick the song “Moneygrabber” which I remember discovering randomly on VH1 on a Saturday morning while in bed. I really liked it! For BonusJam I go with the albums opening track “Breakin' the Chains”. Enjoy my friends! Cheers!
Thanks for dropping by! Let us know what you thought of the tunes! Cheers!
