In this first issue of the new year, we’re zeroing in on some of the best new music from your favorites—Ra Ra Riot, Tegan and Sara, The Joy Formidable and Local Natives. We’ve got some of the best bets of 2013 in our FutureSounds, as well as some TV fan favorites: Parks and Recreation’s Retta, The Office’s Creed Bratton and from Parenthood and Arrested Development, Mae Whitman.
With the Grammys just around the corner and so many reader favorites up for some of the biggest awards, we’re taking you along the Road to the Grammys with The Lumineers, one of 2012’s biggest breakout acts, overwhelmingly loved by Variance readers. They take center stage this issue. We’re also deliberating Frank Ocean, Mumford and Sons, Gotye and some of the others’ chances of winning.
Fitting perfectly in the company of previous covers such as fun. and Gotye, British songstress Ellie Goulding is one of the year’s hottest music makers (and chart-toppers). Her hit song “Lights” has overtaken radio airwaves and topped multiple Billboard charts, and her music has been covered and parodied all across the Web. Her new album Halcyon releases on Oct. 9, and it’s clear this is only the beginning for the young singer.
Along with Goulding, this new issue features many readers' favorites, including Sleigh Bells, Two Door Cinema Club, The Avett Brothers, Emeli Sandé, and Olly Murs, in addition to musicians you've told us were important to you--Gary Clark Jr. and A Fine Frenzy among them. We also talk to actors Tyler James Williams, Charlie Weber and John Krasinski, of NBC’s new show Go On, MTV’s upcoming Underemployed and the long-running comedy The Office, respectively.
