In typical style, trueAnthem's tech-y force (referenced in previous blog as sexy soft(ware) engineers)...have rolled out a ridiculous amount of quality music and widgets this week.
That's right--ALL for your enjoyment...
We know you have been missing our Free Music Wednesdays. You've been listening to the news. You've been reading the papers. The economy is in utter chaos. Even your iGoogle news now makes you sad.
It's okay! Don't fret. There is always Yahoo! news...there is always E! television. The world WILL go on. The US economy WILL rebound. And trueAnthem, help us God, will ALWAYS be bringing you free music.
I mean, what more could we do? In times of poverty, there is nothing better than a trueAnthem music fix to get you out of your dire straights.
And one more note on this train of thought. You are not alone! We all have watched our savings shrink 50%, our salaries shrink (or simply disappear), our stock options evaporating into matter the size of a piggy bank...we all are in the same boat. Even the doctor's wives of this world are now worried about their retirement.
In response to this, all we can say is: Skull Candy!

How can you not put those last pennies towards a pair of Noise Reduction Headphones. In times like this, we may need to tune out even NPR. We just gotta keep our heads up! :)
So, in that positive spirit, I introduce to you our esteemed trueArtists of the week.
Matt Cusson
Matt is the kind of artist you want to hear about first. In fact, his bio needs a slight correction:
"Matt Cusson has people talking" should actually read "Matt Cusson has complete strangers talking."
When I first tuned me up some Cusson love on my lap top, the guy next to me in the coffee shop stopped me in less than sixty seconds..."What's that you're listening to?"
I thought he was going to tell me to turn it down/off/stop being so full of life and music, etc. (not an uncommon vibe in coffee shops these days...bastions of the under/unemployed, they are, after all.)
How not so! He instead wanted to know what I knew about Matt Cusson, and what more I could offer him. I said, well, coffee shop dude, it's your lucky day. I work for a really sweet good-hearted company called trueAnthem and you can get all of Matt's music for (frickin) free online. Not only that, a mighty sexy widget will display this music for your download enjoyment.
Darn, I'm good. I mean, darn! trueAnthem is good. :) And music, well, music is the BEST!
Thank you Matt Cusson, for making us some sweet, sweet trueMusic...tenor saxophones and all. We love you.
(Either that, or we want to make out with you--we can't decide.)
Oh, a few more random fact on Mr. Cusson. He's went to school and played with our talented songwriter friend John Mayer at Berklee. And what's more, he actually graduated. Sexy! No wonder our talented rockstar friend Christina Aguilera chose him to tour with her, and rockstar TV show hosts Regis and Kelly have already featured him live.

The Smyrk
New Haven's The Smyrk give us many reasons not to be depressed about the economy, our marriages, or children's view on the importance of higher education...
After all, this year we get all this from these rockers:
1. A new bandmember
2. A hot new album "in the works"
3. A HARD working, goal oriented foursome poised to become rockstars
Esteemed URB Magazine called the group a "tasty and refreshing treat. Impressively tight." We like to think the same thing about our trueWidgets. Agree? ;)

K-Tee
Hello, we are trueAnthem. We are pleased to introduce you to K-Tee. Nuff said.
No, not really. This guy could be summed up in one awesome sentence, we are sure. But he is oh so write-about-able too.
First off, we love any artist who has the guts to write their bio in the first person. K-Tee starts with:
"Hello and welcome to my domain the name is K-Tee and I am one of the up & coming... "
Straight-forward, tight, groovin'. Just like K-Tee's music.
We then learn (in the words of the man himself), that he is "soon to explode," talented AND driven. We like these things!
He also grew up singing in church.
(Okay--just marry us now, dearest K-Tee!)
No seriously folks. When you hear this man sing, you will become a believer.
He guarantees, for example, in the first track on his trueWidget, that he "can rock it baby." We, certainly, are no one disagree with this articulate statement. Nobody really is, anyway.
Well, okay...maybe if your last name is Obama you can put in an argument against K-Tee's declaration. Otherwise, forever hold your peace. We love this man.
God bless him. And become his fan. Hey, there may be no such thing as a free lunch. But there IS such thing as free music!

Hurry! Let’s Go
http://www.trueanthem.com/HurryLetsGo
Okay, K-Tee has some competition here. How can you not fall in love with Hurry Let's Go?
In their own words:
"We also love writing music because we know that it makes our fans (friends) smile and we like to make people happy."
LOVE! Innocence. Sweetness.
These three personality traits make surprisingly good music.
Here are a few last words from this Tallahasee band's bio. We couldn't say it better ourselves!
"Please go out there and spread the word about us by posting bulletins or telling your friends about us, and continue loving our music as much as we love writing it! God bless, H!LG."
