If you love new music, but you don't have the time we have the solution. Every week our music experts bring in their top picks, which we promise, will keep you and your musical tastes relevant. This week music journalist Nic Harcourt and music supervisor Morgan Rhodes join host Alex Cohen to talk about their selections.

Morgan's first choice was the new trio, King. The band is comprised of twins Paris and Amber Strother and Anita Bias. They burst onto the scene in 2011, a testament to the power of social media who touted their 3-track EP "The Story."  Here's the video for their song, "Hey."

Nic brought in a selection from the band, Freedom Fry - a French/American duo, whose stage name is a play on the troubled US & French relations during the Iraq war. One of the unique things about their new album is they incorporate audio from live concerts, including the audience participating. Here's a video for their song, "21."  

Nic's other selections: 
The Dears - Times Infinity Volume 1
Song: We lost Everything and Onward and Downward 

Morgan's other choice
Dego & The 2000 Black Family - Don't Stop - (Let It Go)/Save It Til Later  
Don't Stop
