Rock, once thought to be dead and buried, is on a big comeback at the moment, you don’t have to look any further than the Canadian underground to appreciate what I’m talking about. SONIK, frontman of The Sonic Memes, is definitely embodying much of the old school rock n’ roll spirit in his new single

Dark pop doesn’t have to automatically equal self-indulgent songwriting themes, and if there’s one player who really wants this to be well-known in 2022, it’s Bob Dee. Together with his band, Petro, he’s melding excess with exquisite compositional discipline in the new single “(I’m Not Your) Steppin’ Stone,” with the results being a lot more
“Ballers Club” is the feisty new hit single from Gabby Gabanna. The hip hop/ R&B single is drunk with indulgent beats. Gabanna’s vocal delivery style is a mesh between rapid fire and an artist that lets the listener marinate in their golden-laced prowess. Gabanna, representing the East Coast-style of rapping hails from North Carolina, and
Elektragaaz offers listeners six different vibes to suit their mood on their latest EP The Synaesthetic Picture Show, Now Playing Part 4. Elektragaaz is a multi-fusion music group based out of New York City that blends various genres with live music and electronic music. Their aim? To create movies in their listeners minds. The group
MUMEx Trio’s four song collection Folds of Time goes where few other musicians or bands can follow. It, likewise, should confound some cliches. Many believe that trained musicians with significant time studying and practicing their craft often play precisely but without passion, thinking too much, feeling too little. Louis Siciliano, Mauro Salvatore, and Bob Bellatalla’s first foray
It’s rather unfortunate to admit, as both a fan and a critic, but there aren’t a lot of artists in the country music scene today willing to put the music – and quality thereof – ahead of everything else when it comes to their careers. Vanity and an ill-conceived notion of virtuosity’s role in Nashville
High energy is the order of the day as we listen in on the opening cut in Project Grand Slam’s The Shakespeare Concert, the classic “I’m Falling Off of the World,” and as the band digs into another stone-cold jam in the form of one “Redemption Road,” the fact that there’s no audience in front of
Greye’s single “Everything” is a successor to its original version appearing on their second studio release, 2016’s The Worrier. There are scattered examples throughout popular music history over the last three-quarters of a century where musical artists, dissatisfied with a prior release or believing the track deserving of a revamp, pluck plums from their catalog and
Opening their latest release Chain Link with the one-two punch of the title track and “Groove Town” makes it clear that Little Muddy’s talents are built on solid fundamentals. Their familiarity with blues and rock doesn’t have any artistic distance; the band, particularly guitarist and dominant songwriter Rich Goldstein, wholeheartedly embrace those traditional sounds without ever imitating
Steve Markoff, Patricia Lazzara, and Allison Brewster Franzetti come together again on the A-Ha’s pop hit “Take On Me” with memorable results. I wasn’t a fan of the original when they first released and it still stands for me as a near-archetypal video for a network, MTV, with serious quality control issues, but my point
Yardan and Andrew Hendryx have a lot of history together, and in the new single “Buzzin’ Fly,” they bring their chemistry into the studio for anyone who appreciates quality Americana to get excited about. There’s always a challenge in making a cover song feel and sound like your own piece of material, but if these
Atmospheric melodies are everywhere we listen in the new single “Time” from Leol, and although the track focuses as much on the backdrop as it does its lead singer, there’s no disputing who the true driving force of this song is. Leol presents with the kind of crisp, relaxed attitude more akin to the veteran
Mary Broadcast’s EP Panic reflects the Austrian born singer, songwriter, musician, and bandleader’s refusal to cookie cutter her artistic vision. She may object to the term, but Panic is a concept album built around a narrative arc extending over six songs. Broadcast includes an accompanying video for each of the EP’s six “episodes”, as she calls them, and the
Nearly famous even before he was conceived Scott Page was the son of multi-instrumentalist, entrepreneur and band leader Bill Page, a Chicago born reed player who is recognized for his continuous presence on the Lawrence Welk show. It wasn’t unusual to see the very young Scott performing with his dad on the show as well.
Eric Scott Stevens’ “Burnt Umber” is an early contender for single of the year. The imaginative crackle sparking off the composition never hits me as flashy but, instead, as an authentic expression of the songwriter’s point of view. It doesn’t really matter if the material is what we might call autobiographical. Stevens so thoroughly inhabits
Bass virtuoso Leland Sklar is the core, polestar, the guiding light of the “BASS”, and of Rock-N-Roll itself. Aside from being the leading sessions bassist on the planet for 5 decades the poetry of his longevity is the fact that he evolves, and is able to reinvent himself and reinvent the future….He is already etched
John Pasquale (lovingly also known as SohoJohnny) is right at the CORE of the philanthropic universe. As a visionary he produces some of the biggest benefit concerts known to mankind. The founder of the “Let Me Help, Inc” foundation was created by him as a tribute to his mom who passed from Covid early on during the
Although it can be said that the guitar strings decadently adorning the backdrop throughout Dici’s new single “u n i” aren’t meant to be the main attraction in this track, they make a strong point for the melodic underpinning soon to follow the first few bars here. Anyone who knows anything about Dici is well
Bio: Teyquil Skelton is a singer, songwriter, producer, writer, actor, and all-around performer, born and raised in Philadelphia. Influenced by indie pop, electro, and synth elements, Teyquil’s music has remnants of a good ol’ 80’s vibe that take you back to the nostalgia of a significant era of music with a modern twist.

Conqueror of Love, Bobby and the Crew’s latest Single, holds onto the wedding guest in you and doesn’t let go. Witty lyrics, fast paced melodies, and horns give this pop song a zesty nature that stays with you after one listen. Bobby and The Crew have created a naturally flirtatious song that doesn’t take itself
