“Music doesn’t lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.”
~Jimi Hendrix

Happy Monday Lovies. I’ve always been one to believe that the three most fundamental things to understanding and embracing worldly culture is music, food and fashion. So it is by no surprise that all three of these art driven expressions help to bring tremendous balance to my life. A great understanding for each other and what makes each of us so uniquely but perfectly different is mostly driven by what our cultural influences are; which brings us back to the type of music we listen to, the type of cuisine that we consume and the type of fashions that inspires us. When I seek inspiration during my least inspiring moments, I turn to music. Especially when I’m in a creative mood, but struggle to come up with a vision for that final result. 

Today, I introduce you to a true artist by the name of Van Hunt. I was first introduced to this artist in 2004 when he released his self-titled album Van Hunt. This ingenious album is reminiscent of the good ole Harlen Night days or shall I say nights. The artist brings a unique perspective to music as he demonstrate in his two projects just how talented he is. Singer, Songwriter, Producer and Composer is how you can describe this talented artist. How to best describe his music? Well, his sound is a genius mix of Jimi Hendrix, Prince, Lenny Kravitz and Marvin Gaye. While the verdict is still out as to which of his two albums are my absolute favorite, I might just be leaning more towards his self-titled album…Van Hunt. Both albums are exceptional albums that you should certainly consider adding to your music collection. Notable tracks to mention from the self-titled Van Hunt album (Released in 2004): Her December, Out Of The Sky and Down Here In Hell.  Notable tracks to mention from his second album; On the Jungle Floor (Released in 2006): If I Take You Home, Mean Sleep and Character. Enjoy!
