LISTEN: The New Limb (YM&C EXCLUSIVE) Author:   ·  August 13th, 2012

We’re SUPER excited to bring an incredible new band to you all; The New Limb. This little band, out of Los Angeles, has been KILLING it lately. They’ve been performing all around town (recently with another one of our favorites, Foxes) and creating all the time (trivia: they list one of their inspirations as tickle flights). They were nice enough to film this little exclusive for YM&C recently while they were in the studio. Check out “Tell Us Your Name”!

Can’t get enough of the song? You can download it for free below on our YM&C Soundcloud player:

    That’s great, I love the band name and that song is kinda amazing. It’s like when the sun rises on a dew laden morning and the first glimmer shins against a frost filled window. Long johns and a bird or two chirping in the background are defiantly in the mix!

    Beautiful voices, beautiful melody, and super relaxing! PS: You should make another post of A Fine Frenzy, Alison Sudol is a Charlie too, she’s amazing.

  • Michelle Lani

    Another new treasure to add to my iPod thanks to YM&C! I love this song! The guitar part, harmonies, the unique voices, and especially the happy dancing vibe! It’s even cooler that it’s performed live and still sounds flawless. There’s something about live versions of songs that capture my heart! Love it!

  • AllieSeg

    I’ve been obsessed since this was posted. I love finding new artists to listen to on here :) I love this because they have such a pure sound and their voices are just so good. I love them. The chorus of this song in particular has me singing. Thank you so much for posting!

  • Sammi

    “Tell Us Your Name” is easily my favorite within this entire section. While all the posts feature beautiful videos with striking images that compliment the songs and take them to the next level of artistic expression, there is something about this rather simple video that shows people sincerely enjoying their craft and combining there talents to make something incredible that I just love. I love the way their voices mingle and I just want to get up and dance around the room to it.

  • Mallory Roy

    I find it simply outstanding that you seem to be able to find the best artist all of the time. The soft yet strong voice in this song is extraordinary.I find myself bopping my head along to the music. Thank you You, Me & Charlie for recommending a band I may not have found otherwise.

  • http://twitter.com/tonicarty Toni Carter

    So this will be my second comment on this page but I’ll definitely elaborate on that tiny sentence I gave originally. This is my favourite music recommendation by YM&C. At the time of this post, I fell head over heels in love with ‘Tell Us Your Name” and had it on repeat (which has now been upgraded to my favourites playlist that I shared sometime yesterday). Since then I’ve been following them on YouTube and have made it my mission to get my friends to listen to them also. Their cover of Climax (by Usher) is flawless and this is from a giant Usher fan. I downloaded the Refugees Live Session and listed to it religiously. Their music is so calming and beautiful. I really like the Cyndi Lauper ‘Time After Time’ inspired bit of Bizarre Love Triangle as it provides some nostalgia to this new music and is sung brilliantly. The music on this site is always great but this band never fails to make me smile when it comes up on shuffle.

  • EC

    This is my favourite post on LISTEN. Why? Because this is amazing. I’ve always thought that music can always be improved by being able to see the singer – the passion and excitement and fun that singers have is great to watch. (Plus, the free download was great haha.) (Also, it’s one of my most played.) Well done to The New Limb and thanks to YM&C for the great music.

  • http://twitter.com/ninactor Nina

    This is just too good. The new limb is just simply amazing, i just need to thank YM&C for this great artist.

  • Kimmie

    Thirty seconds in and I knew this was going to be a good one! This will make the perfect song while driving on the skyway! I’m not a morning person, so I plan to pair this with my morning coffee to jumpstart my day. THANK YOU SO MUCH <3

  • http://twitter.com/berlinbeatgirl Maria Gutiérrez

    The first time I listened to this I though: what about closing my eyes and don’t watch the video? I did this. I started listening all the notes, the rhythms and the voices. It felt so good just to listen what good music is, without distractions. When I did this I could notice all the shades this song has, I was amazed. That’s why this post is my favourite Listen post.

  • Marylou

    I’ve been obsessed with this song and I met one of the music of the B.O of my life.
    Do you have one ? You know, songs who are you at some point, you find yourself in it and you keep going on your own journey with somebody else words/music/worlds.
    It’s blow my mind EVERY TIME.
    Well that’s one of my B.O song.
    “You and I make a world up together”

  • http://twitter.com/mournfulskies m

    Favorite post on Listen! I’m now obsessed with The New Limb – thanks Charlie! This song is so catchy, I love the lyrics and the voices’ harmonies. Plus, being able to watch the band play gives it more emphasis. Perfection, I’d say! <3

  • Audrey KL

    This is my favourite post from the Listen category. It’s just one of those songs that makes you feel happy from the moment it starts! It’s such a cheerful song and sometimes I feel like there aren’t enough of those around. And you can tell that they’re loving what they’re doing, which makes it all the more enjoyable to listen to. Thanks YM&C for introducing them to us!

  • http://twitter.com/rAnTiFuSa Flor Espino

    The LISTEN section from YM&C is one of my favorite ones and this post in particular. Not only because of the music, the video is also great. Is more like a “watch and listen” kinda thing :)
    This song is amazing, the lyrics and the music, it’s just perfect!

  • http://twitter.com/valencastillos Valentina

    This is my favorite LISTEN post. I just,I can’t describe how in love I felt with the girl’s voice,I don’t know,I guess that’s how It feels when you just know that your soul liked a song. I keep hearing this band every time I can,is BEAUTIFUL. And,I am in love with the lyrics too,you know that moment when you are hearing this song,and all the instrumental backup shuts and It just the singer and you? “Now we are one,all of your friends can be us too”. Magic is there,magic is what I felt.

  • http://twitter.com/amgarza516 A M Garza

    i think it fair to say i love this whole section cause nothing like being exposed to new music but there is just something about The New Limb sound that drew me in and had me searching for more from them. Thank you

  • Dylan Gray

    I love this because it reminds me of my experiences with my first band, such raw fresh talent coming together to make music. It also inspires me to keep pushing to get my music an my friends out there and to remember that music is supposed to be the biggest part of my life

  • http://twitter.com/littleq13 quinn

    This is my favorite post from Listen because this is my favorite band!
    Their music is great! the lyrics is sooo beautiful and true!
    This is my favorite song from the band because it’s a song that makes me happy the most :)
    I can’t imagine to live without their music, same as I can’t imagine to live without ym&c
    When I’m at home I turn on their music and sing and dance along with it!
    I could sing this song to strangers ‘tell us your name, tell us you want to know mine too’
    It’s a song that really welcomes you, ‘come with us, take our hand new friend, you’re one of us’.
    Once I saw someone beïng sad and lonely in the hallway and I walked to that girl and sat with her, she was listening sad music about feeling alone, losing people, and broken hearted.
    I started this song and sang with it and she looked at me, shyly.
    I told her she wasn’t alone and then asked her to sing it with me, she said she didn’t know the lyrics.
    “Don’t care it’s easy I believe in you just sing with your heart not with your mind” a few minutes later she knew the lyrics and we sang the song together, she smiled.
    Now, we love this song as much as we did at that moment and we’re friends! ;)

  • Heavynne

    This is my favorite post in LISTEN! I adore this song. I don’t come in this category that often but I’m thinking now that maybe I should, you guys always seem to find such great artists. The song is incredible. It has a homely feeling but also makes you feel all happy and dancy! I love it :)

  • Hannah Wolfenden

  • Rainbowelephants

    I just hear that song every day, I think is beatiful.It sounds just so magikal. Really brilliant, my favorite from Listen category.

  • Rebecca Kelly

    This is my favourite listen post for the pure reason that it brings out pure happiness in me. I don’t know what it is about this song but when I turn on my iPod after a day at school and listen to this, it just lifts me up and I can’t help but be grateful because it reminds me of the group of friends I’ve been blessed with. I close my eyes and I feel good.

    Thanks Charlie.

  • Miri_8

    Even though this post has been on here for a while I still like it best, it’s the kind of song I want to sing when I’m with all my friends, maybe sitting around a fire in winter, or a little drunk after a barbecue on a summer night. When I listen to it I’m think of the friends I’m blessed to have in my life <3

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000500090417 Bruna Luiza

    Again Charlie allowed me to meet a new band and wow, these guys are amazing! I love how this is a typical indie band and yet they still seem to Incorporate Their Own unique sound into the mix making me want to hear more. This, surely, is my favorite post.

  • https://twitter.com/_an__ Ana

    Tell us
    your name is my favorite post from Listen. Why? because of the whole song of
    course. I just have to tell you that my name is Ana and Charlie, you were meant
    for me and I was meant to follow you. We are going to make a world up together
    because now we are one.

  • http://twitter.com/lulibald Lu Belmont

    I listened to it the first time and I immediately did it again, and next thing I knew was that I couldn’t stop listening to it for a couple of days, the song, and the band kept sucked in my head. Me and my iPod needs to thank you, YM+C for this, favourite Listen post!.

  • http://www.imaginaunamor.tumblr.com/ Marcelo_Argentina

    I love this band, and thanks to the knowledge, M & C and now I can not stop listening. It’s great when you work with me! Excellent post from Spencer .. Many thanks … this is my FAVORITE!
    The New Limb’s best!

  • Christine J.H.

    This was probably my favorite partially because it’s some
    sense of LA solidarity emerging but mostly because the music sounds phenomenal!
    The melody starts out so playful and her voice complements; it transitions into
    this intense beat. Seriously, just the music is so spot-on! I’m so excited for
    their trip to SD in November, thanks to finding them on YMC J

  • http://twitter.com/AngelFairyGirl Angeles

    This is my absolute favorite Listen post always good to discover new bands with which one can feel identified and through YM&C can always find music ever imagined knowing. Music is important to me because it is both a language, a science and an art. It is par excellence the language of feeling, when we hear that we feel within us are a series of moods as it may be the joy, grief, sorrow, devotion, admiration, etc.,That the once us deeper into a state of peace, tranquility, meditation. with it we can express a thousand things and this song in particular it encourages me.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Susan-Davila/706652270 Susan Davila

    This song is so awesome. Each and evey memeber of the band made it their own and I liked that :) Very original! What I love about music is that we can find something new and exciting every day like I did today! Thank you ym&c! :)

  • Maddy

    My VERY favourite LISTEN post has got to be this one. No long, in depth meaning, I just simply cannot shake this song out of my head. Thanks a billion for the musical find!

  • http://twitter.com/CallMeAggie agathe loison

    This is just . ouhaw. I was trying to find which one to chose as ” my favourite one”. And I think that it’s just obvious. Her voice is so…. Spellbinding. Really, who can’t be under her spell after plyaing her song. It’s the kind of girl, who’s so involved in her work, who is so close to her song that we can”t help but say that she is really surroundeed by a halo of passion . It’s not her song. It’s more like she is the girl that the song chose to be performed by. Outstanding.

  • @mygoodintent

    What a difficult pick, my favourite listen post. Well I was going to go for the beautifull Foxes but I love this track in equal measure and it differs from the foxes track in that I probabaly would not have come across this had it not been for ym&c(thank you again guys). This had me from the beautiful, wonderfully sounding first line sung. Just simple bloody decent tune, that`s it.
