Explosions

This is Coco Morier:


When you look at her, what do you think? Gaga, right? WRONG!! Although when you google her name and look at some pictures of her, you might say, "Oh, she's a Lady Gaga clone." But you'd be wrong!

If you take a listen to her music, it is far from Gaga. It is plain and simple. It's Coco.  And she is on the verge of blazing the trails for an indie-pop synth wave. One possible contemporary could be Little Boots (here is an example), but Little Boots is more in just the pop category.

Even still, Coco is very unique. Many are dubbing her "The Indie Britney." I mean she has aided in vocals for the princess of pop on her last three albums including the songs "Heaven On Earth" and "How I Roll." And no, these weren't lead singles, but Ms. Morier has been developing her own songs and sounds since working on a couple different projects and is now flying solo and released a five song EP, which you can take a listen to here.

My favorite is the title of this post, "Explosions."

It's super catchy! And it's not only synth, it's disco/clap/garage rock. It's an interesting blend and I like it a lot! My fear is that she'll get overlooked in this current music scene. If people can put down their Maroon 5s, One Directions, and Lil Waynes, then she COULD get big.

The other song I like a lot is "My Satellite."

Check them out, check her out!

"I'll light the fire inside of you and we can make an explosion!"
