Ho Hey- The Lumineers

Sweet and oh so catchy, are they destined to be a one hit wonder band? I hope not. The lead singer & guitarist, Wesley Schultz has a voice I have fallen in love with. It has been a long time since that has happened. "Ho Hey" has reached #3 on Billboard's Hot 100. As of yesterday, it was still #2 on Billboard's Hot Rock Songs Chart (http://www.billboard.com/charts/rock-songs) after 51 weeks.
The second offering, "Stubborn Love", has left me a little underwhelmed considering how much I loved "Ho Hey", still good though. "Ho Hey" is on The Lumineers album.


I know it is suppose to be a one song a day blog, but....... Well I am really rooting for this band so here are a few more songs. "Slow it Down" can also be found on The Lumineers.


And the last is "Elouise", LOVE THIS, not on the album and from what I understand unreleased. Good Stuff. If this is your throw away song, I think you are doing pretty well.


I sit and listen to Schultz's infectious voice sing  "I don't know where I belong, I don't know where I went wrong, but I can write a song". Yes Sir, you sure can. So lasting power or a sophomore death? What do you think?
