Tunes to Stave Off Boredom

So....while doing numerous hours of homework, I've discovered and been introduced to some amazing artists and songs, which have saved me from hours and hours of ultimate boredom. I though I'd share a few with you, in case you're in need of some new tunes.

First up, we have Lauren O'Connell. Basically, I'd love to be Lauren O'Connell when I grow up. Not only does she have an amazing original voice, she plays at least 8 instruments and several household objects in unique ways, and her lyrics are really meaningful. So you should listen to everything she's ever written. My favorite song, and the one that one of my friends originally showed to me, is the one in the link, White Noise.

Another incredible artist, who I actually found off of a Lauren O'Connell song, is Benjamin Jameson Morrey. Another singer-songwriter with meaningful lyrics, his voice sounds so innocent and simple that his lyrics are allowed to speak for themselves. My favorite song of his, the one in the link, also has a very cool video (the video in the link). It's called "Hospital-Pt.1".

So, if you're ever in need of some amazing music and have something that must be done that you aren't exactly thrilled about...look either of these two artists up. You will not be bored any longer!
