Whoa, I forgot it was Wednesday! And the funny thing is all day I’ve been thinking about what I should write for next week’s posts, while I was enjoying last night’s concert afterglow. (Yes I did go see Franz Ferdinand and it was amazing. Don’t judge me, I’m weak.)

I apologize about the tardiness, but I’ll try to make it up to you with today’s great New Band with some serious potential. I bring you Buen Chico! Ok, let’s see, how can I explain what they sound like. They seem to have some nineties Britpop influences with some sixties pop mixed into it. They sound like such a pleasant bunch, it’s very hard not to like them. On the other hand, their inoffensiveness does make them a bit safe, though they are brand spanking new, so it might be too soon to tell.

Let me put it this way: after hearing six of their songs, so far they’re not the most edgy or innovative band I’ve heard this year, but they make me so happy I can’t wait to be done with this post and dance around with them. You can listen to their debut single “Giving Your Gifts” and even the B-side “Drip Drip Tick Tock” on myspace. If you, however, want to hear a reason why I might have jumped the gun on telling you how safe they sound, download “La La La” on their official site. It makes my ears want to do a happy dance of their own.
