Voices of the Day: Fitz and the Tantrums

Although I recognize the name, Fitz and the Tantrums are a new band to me. I spend less time pursuing indie in my constant searches for new music, but I'm always happy to come across quality music in the genre. In listening to Don't Gotta Work it Out, i realized I'd definitely heard it before but couldn't place it. Turn's out it's sampled in Hoodie Allen's Song for an Actress...good choice Hoodie.

Fitz and the Tantrums have a funky, playful feel with a touch of blues (the key to my heart in music). Supported by a bouncy piano line and accented with bari-sax and energetic percussion, this song becomes catchy and stylistic. Soulful vocals and harmonies from Fitz and co-vocalist Noelle Scaggs create a uniquely branded sound for this band.

Watch and listen to a new favorite: Fitz and the Tantrums
