Playing Games is What We Do Best

After I finally shoveled myself out of the dreary winter stupor that found me neglecting my duties to indie rock, I decided to kick back into gear with a favorite artist of mine... Laron Bybee. You might remember this soldier wrote quite a touching original Christmas song featured back in December. And as promised, here's another one direct from his channel entitled, "The Games You Play."

For fans of Teddy Geiger, Howie Day, Jason Mraz, and John Mayer, you're sure to like the sounds of this one. Although not technically an aspiring musician by his own admission, Laron Bybee succeeds where others fail... taking a pleasing music style and giving it a quality all his own without making it sound overproduced, overdone, or overrated. And the lyrics are unique, too. How can you go wrong with that?

So show some indie rock appreciation and take a listen to "The Games You Play."

Laron - Not Just Another Rehashed Christmas Song

Like it or not, the Christmas season is upon us, yet again. In my case, it's "like it not." Call me Scrooge, but Christmas comes once a year too often. It's not the snow. It's not the ice. It's not the sound of the cash falling out of my wallet at the speed of sound that gets me down. It's the constant drone of "Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire" whined by the likes of Clay Aiken and "Jingle Bells" sung in seven different languages that nearly grosses me out. And Ashley Tisdale's "This Christmas" has been played ten too many times on too many different television shows.

SO I've made an end-of-the-year resolution: I will not tolerate rehashed Christmas songs. Nope. No more American Idol Christmases, no more George Michael remakes. This Christmas, I'm going completely indie.

That's why I'm so hyped about this Christmas song by a young man known only to me as Laron. His viewers have described him as sounding like Teddy Geiger, and personally, I think we can throw in a little James Blunt and a smidge of John Mayer. This is one Christmas song you're likely to play over and over again throughout the season, and I can bet you this: the radio will not be playing it over and over like a broken record. So are you ready for the fresh sounds of indie Christmas? Just press play.
