Today we have a double shot of music video breaks, both featuring some groovy tunes. First is Roxanne de Bastion, who I discovered at an open mic night during a trip to New York City last month (read about it here). Roxanne's current single, "Buckle Up" has a music video and in it, she invades the lobbies of the BBC and performs. I can't help but think with her just showing up and the guerrilla-style camerawork just embodies one form of the rock and roll spirit. Enjoy the video and the song.

The second video comes from New Zealand band Sola Rosa featuring Spikey Tee. A mix of reggae, latin, calpyso, and funk, it reminds me of bands like Galactic, Ozomatli, and The Dap Kings (of Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings). And last I checked those are three damn good bands that are impossible to not like. The song is "Love Alone," and I dig director Richard Shaw's vision in this with the use of various styles of vinyl album covers to sort of introduce the band. Enjoy.
