[NEW]: Portland Releases “Deezy Daisy”

French electropop trio Portland released their single “Deezy Daisy” via iTunes and the Maison Kitsune shop. It’s a very upbeat 80s pop sound mixed with Lily Pejon’s sultry French-accented vocals.

 

Check out their other song “You Don’t Know Me”:

Fun Fact: Portland’s singer is Lily Pejon, who also appears in other BoxSpeaker favorites such as the acoustic billiards hall version of “One by One” by The Napoleons and in her own cover of “Wooden Chair” by Angus Stone.

[NEW]: “I Won’t Be Long” by Beck

Check out Beck’s latest single “I Won’t Be Long.” “I Won’t Be Long” is the second brand new track actually performed by him following up the single “Defriended” and his “album” the Song Reader, which was just released as a set of sheet music instead of recorded music.

Setting the Record Straight for People Searching “Lauren Mayberry Boyfriend”

I’ll preface this post with the fact that I’m really into data and analytics – especially when they deal with websites.

So one thing I’ve noticed while checking my site’s Google Analytics is that people keep finding my blog by searching “Lauren Mayberry boyfriend” and similar terms. In fact, someone even found my blog by searching “Lauren+Mayberry+lesbian” – crazy right?

Let me set the record straight for all the people searching “Lauren Mayberry Boyfriend” and the one person who searched “Lauren+Mayberry+Lesbian.”

I have the biggest celebrity crush on Lauren Mayberry. If she said she professed her love for me, then I’d take her right to NYC and same-sex-marry her.

So who is Lauren Mayberry’s boyfriend? Is Lauren Mayberry a lesbian? Is BoxSpeaker Bernie actually Lauren Mayberry’s secret girlfriend?

The answer to all that is: I DON’T KNOW. Well, except the last one – sadly, I’m not her secret girlfriend 🙁 I have my informed hypotheses, but I won’t disclose them. 🙂

Anyway – check out the song that made me fall in love with them:

[NEW]: “Glitter and Gold” by Little Daylight

This morning, Little Daylight released their latest track “Glitter and Gold.”

The electropop trio explores new sounds in this track – bringing together an 80s popstar Madonna “Material Girl” singing style with world music drum beats and newtro electropop synths.

Catch them this fall on their tour with Kitten and Charli XCX!
