Sounds like: Lana Del Rey, Say Lou Lou
By Jason Grishkoff on Nov 12, 2013 | Well, we've been waiting for this track to leak for a couple days now, and here it is. Lorde covering Tears For Fears! Leading up to this, there's no doubt been an immense amount of pressure on Lorde to win over the crowds (at least in my mind). Aft... read more →

Timber Timbre - Lonesome Hunter
Sounds like: Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Devendra Banhart
