Weekend Video: Cheap Motel by Andrew Austin & Donovan Woods

I have been simultaneously adoring Andrew Austin and Donovan Woods lately. Austin's While It's Still Light Out and Woods' Don't Get Too Grand, have consumed my quiet moments, long commutes, and neighborhood walks. In early December, I attempted to create a playlist for the month and couldn't get past Inside Out and The Coldest State. I gave up on getting any further, yet still the playlist resides on my spotify pane.

The two Canadian artists are reminiscent of Dallas Green when he was younger. The two have intelligent, honest lyrics, that showcase the optimism and pessimism surrounding relationships. While Austin leans towards the happier moments and Woods towards the more-challenging, the two albums on shuffle seem to create this beautifully, complete picture of love.

I found Austin and Woods to be complimentary before learning they were friends in real life. Their endearing twitter banter and support of each others' works adds a whole new level of charm.



Listen to Austin and Woods sing Austin's Cheap Motel in someone's living room and try not to swoon.
