Women We Love Wednesdays: First Aid Kit (Johanna and Klara Soderberg)

There's just something about a beautifully rich folk rock harmony, and that's something that sisterly duo First Aid Kit do perfectly time and time again. First Aid Kit has been going hard at it since 2007, when Johanna and Klara were discovered as one of the rising acts of Sweden, their home country. Since then, First Aid Kit has become an easy staple of the indie rock world, winning over audiences, musicians and critics alike.

Saturday Night Fever: Snow Day Party Mix

Freaky Friday: James Brown Covers Hoagy Carmichael's 'Georgia On My Mind'

At Music Times, we love a good cover song. There's something wonderful about repurposing music and essentially bringing life to another creation. Music is not a rigid and inflexible product but rather a malleable one that allows songs to take on a new life as others reimagine it. Nothing gets a crowd more excited than seeing one of their favorite bands cover one of their favorite songs. The cover song makes music accessible to new audiences, and spreading music is what we are all about. Welcome to Freak Friday. Each week we highlight a new cover song that we're crazy about.

Throwback Thursday: 'October' by U2

Music Times believes that it's never too late to go back and try something old. Throwback Thursdays will go back and pull out an album that's at least 10 years old, so that you can find something new, or revisit something you've forgotten about.
Women We Love Wednesday: Lily Allen

It's hard not to love Lily Allen. The 28-year-old singer/songwriter is a pistol for the ages and is not afraid to speak her mind. Allen's music has always been highlighted with an acerbic wit, blatant honesty and a politcal awareness that isn't typically heard in popular music. The best part about Allen's music is that it's set to music so adorably poppy and bubblegummy that it oftentimes takes a second listen to realize the socially aware lyrics that she's written, making for music that is truly layered and original.
