Jimmy Needham and Jack Johnson

Today I have music for you by a very low-key independent artist known as Jimmy Needham. This is a man who definitely enjoys the low light, but somehow still shines above those in the spotlight. This is a man who really makes music for the love of music instead of all the other excuses some artists have. Jimmy Needham is a wonderful mix of Michael Buble and Jason Mraz which is actually the most magnificent thing in the world. Jimmy Needham has a wonderful voice, one that is warm and soft and lively. He has a voice that makes you feel really good inside and it just fills you with happiness. His tone is so warm and comforting to the point that even in his sadder or slower songs, I still feel. There is something whimsical and "sweep you off your feet" about this song and it can make anyone feel incredible. For all the girls out there, this is the cutest anthem to the father-daughter relationship. For all the guys out there, this song is how you should feel about your daughter or having a daughter, what that would be like. How you would love her more than anything else in the entire world. Jimmy Needham has a great guitar melody to serves as the main instrument of choice for this song. Similar to Jason Mraz, Jimmy Needham throws down some sick acoustic melodies and chords that all come together to become the main instrumental part of the background. The overall tone and mood of this song really reminded me of some of Michael Buble's newer music. Both have that springy and happy go lucky sound to it. There is also some jazz in the background towards the last chorus which really made me think of Michael Buble. But the thing about Jimmy Needham is although he does have sounds that remind me of other artists, his music is so incredibly original. There are mixes of influences that come together to create a sound that is entirely unique to Jimmy Needham. This original sound coupled with beautifully written lyrics is a great combination. I mean seriously, listen to these lyrics and how can you not feel really warm and fuzzy inside? Today's instrumental song is by Jack Johnson. This is an artist whom I also really really love. He and Jimmy Needham have this blusey and lively guitar work. Jack Johnson has this really nice way of combining soft rock and acoustic guitar work in a way that makes you feel nice. These are songs that I listen to when its nice and sunny outside and I am doing some work or if my imagination starts to wander. These songs are very artsy and fun. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
