Budapest

One of my new favourite songs that I have been listening to non stop is Budapest by George Ezra. The first time I heard this song was on the radio station called indie88 based out of Toronto. George Ezra is a new upcoming artist in the indie world from Hartford, England. At just 21 years old, Ezra has provided the indie world with amazing music that  is reaching the top 10 on many charts around the world and number one on the charts in the Czech Republic, Austria and New Zealand. 

His album Wanted On Voyage was released in late June, 2014 and is slowly starting to become a huge success with the growing popularity of the song Budapest. Ezra was not only born with extreme musical talents but he also has experience with his music knowledge as he studied at The British and Irish Modern Music Institute in 2011. Some of George Ezra’s late musical inspiration comes from  artists such as Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan. 

In the popular indie music blog called, When The Gramaphone Rings they feature George Ezra on their Live Review section. They review him as being a breath of fresh air with a voice beyond his years. A breath of fresh air is a perfect description for Ezra’s song Budapest. This song brings me to a place of summertime drives and long sunny beach days. Listening to this tune brings me so much happiness and joy and I hope it can do the same for you!

Enjoy!

  3. Its a good song, I can't help think that the radio will over play it and make everyone hate it after awhile...
