Indie Music Weekly Picks: Ex Norwegian, Rachel Goodrich
This week we went with a little South Florida theme since Rob & Lexi were just there, and are now pining for the warm weather. Both artists encompass two different sounds that invoke visions of Miami Beach, and summertime fun. Check out the episode of My Indie Life.
Ex Norwegian is a rockin’ band from Miami. who have a powerful sound that’s irresistibly poppy & easy to love. They have a range of influences from Procol Harum to Enrique Inglesias to Nirvana. I definitely pick up on a “Kinks” vibe. Definitely diggin’ it.

Rachel Goodrich is a cool, quirky lady, also from Miami Beach. She plays a plethora of instruments, including guitar, keys, uke, harmonica, xylophone, banjo, mandolin, spoons, pots, pans, and kazoo….oh, and she sings. I especially enjoy her song called “Light Bulb”.
Her voice, mixed with the instrumentation reminds me of 1940s jazz-country-folk. Very cool.
