Semi-Unknown Really, Really Good YouTube Talents: The Mcs




I’m never really sure of what constitutes “unknown” or “underground” when it comes to the music scene. This dialogue arose one time over dinner with a fellow music-loving acquaintance who stated that the only way to REALLY find underground music is to stumble into a hole in the wall bar somewhere.  Whether this claim is accurate or not, I don’t find myself wandering into hole in the wall bars with unusual frequency, so I resort to the World Wide Web: YouTube.

I think it’s fair to say that musicians with several videos under  1 million views can be classified as semi-“unfamous”, so I hope you don’t feel mislead. And yes, maybe I was that girl in high school watching Justin Bieber saying “LOOK AT THIS KID” (credibility established).  Countless evenings I find myself clicking away on YouTube. “I’ll go to bed by 11 tonight,” I say to myself as I aggressively click the side panel of my browser. But most of the time once I’m in it, I am IN IT. So since I’ve already wasted my time weeding through the horrendous, you don’t have to! And now I will share with you the magnificent.

Allie McDonald, Collin McLoughlin, Kate McGill.

OH MY GOSH. These guys are GOOD. Pitch perfect, appropriately emotional, phenomenally tasteful, and all quite lovely. Even better, these guys have already starting releasing original material so it's only a matter of time...ENJOY!
