Friday Pick of the Week

Happy Friday, friends. This week's selection has been all the rage on the internet. Fort Atlantic's "Let Your Heart Hold Fast" was number two on Spotify's list of Top 10 Most Viral Tracks for the week of December 23. The track got a boost from its contribution to CBS's How I Met Your Mother, riding a wave of Google searches for "what was that song on how I met your mother last night?" Fort Atlantic is essentially a project of Birmingham-tied singer-songwriter Jon Black, who incorporates digital production into folksy rock-pop. You well might recognize Black's voice and styling from his contributions to Birmingham-based Red Mountain Music. Without further ado, I present to you the Friday Pick of the Week.
