Rid ton is an up and coming pop band from the UK. I typically am not a pop fan but these guys are really talented. This song has a great sound and message.

Passenger has become a world-wide craze lately. This song has some great modern references and a strong set of lyrics. I play it over and over right now.

Ed Sheeran's new album is a departure from his singer/songwriter vibe, but there are some catchy tunes on it. This one is fun and lighthearted... Plus the video is funny!
