Breaking News: LANY frontman can now afford sleeves

About a year and a half ago I posted LANY’s first mega hit single “ILYSB” (I Love You So Bad) and info on how they started this band as an incognito Soundcloud account, and actually thought they were getting catfished when some rando UK labels came a’knockin (they weren’t). Now LANY is selling out shows from LA to NY (get it? LANY… no, for real, that’s what their name means. Look it up if you don’t believe me. They wanted a four letter name, and considered TTYL for a hot minute, then decided they “didn’t want to be 13 for the rest of our lives“. Smart choice.). So I guess, you’re welcome LANY, for getting your name out there and singlehandedly racking up your Spotify listens in to the millions. After appearing on FSL, their career skyrocketed (!! not surprising though really) supporting acts like Ellie Goulding, Twin Shadow, X Ambassadors, Halsey, and a whole slew of festivals. Well, their new single has a cool name too, and also the phrase I say when chickenheads come a’cluckin: “yeah, babe, no way.” And if you haven’t heard “WHERE THE HELL ARE MY FRIENDS” (apologies on the all caps :-/), I’ve included it too.

Chelsea’s Favorite Tracks of 2014

2014 was a year for the books. In terms of my personal life, it was probably the best one yet – I traveled the world, became heavily invested in the music business, met a ton of incredible people, and carved out a clearer (and less frightening) vision for my future. In terms of music – well, let’s just say that I had a wonderful soundtrack for all of my wonderful experiences.

Although many people view the future of music in a negative light, this year has solidified that music is actually headed in a great direction. We’ve further engaged with music streaming services, witnessed stronger artist-to-fan relationships, and have discovered countless greats through our computers. 2014 has introduced us to so much and has paved the way for what should be an awesome year of music in 2015.

So whether they hit the charts or stayed under the radar, here’s a list of just a few of my favorites. In one way or another, each of these tracks have helped make my 2014 an extremely memorable year – I hope you enjoy them as much as I have! Thank you for reading/listening and have a safe, warm, and wonderful holiday. Cheers!
