It takes sharp songwriting skills to write from a place of personal experience without ever crossing the line into obscurity. INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/robeberle/ Rob Eberle navigates that line like a master. His new single “Half of You” covers the emotional fallout from an one-sided love affair with more maturity, heartache, and yearning than you’d typically hear

Universal Dice keeps impressing me more and more each time I encounter their music. Musical Mastermind Gerry Dantone and his bandmates are never content with releasing cookie cutter rock or pop music that you forget days, if not hours, after hearing for the first time. They set their sights higher. I applaud their ambition and
Bill McBirnie’s prodigious flute playing talents are apparent from the first song and title track of his new release Reflections (For Paul Horn). “Reflections” has a predominantly laid-back vibe befitting his chosen instrument, but McBirnie mixes in some uptempo physicality into the arrangement that broadens the track’s diversity. No one can hear this eight-song collection and
No one can claim that young performer, musician, and songwriter Dawson Fuss isn’t engaged with life. His new five-song EP Maybe makes it abundantly clear. Fuss steeps his art in the everyday concerns and experiences common for any nineteen-year-old. What makes it uncommon, however, is the mature perspective he has on those aforementioned experiences and concerns. Fuss is

Welcome to our exclusive interview with Kathy Sabol! We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to dive into her creative process, learn more about her and her art. Could you tell us about the inspiration behind your upcoming single? What themes or experiences influenced its creation? I wrote “Belong with You” with two groups in mind:
Roots Asylum’s eleven-track release Ride On dives deep into a great rock and roll sound on many tracks. However, they don’t limit themselves. The five members of Roots Asylum, led by lead singer and rhythm guitarist Jimmy Macaroni (McMillan), are equally at home with blues, acoustic arrangements, and even a dash of country music and punk rock
While conceptualism is quashing the competition in the mainstream market to an extent where it’s difficult to tell the alternative rappers from their more commercially-stylized counterparts, Ren.y.c’s forward sound in the new single “Wicky” is truly her and her alone. Without consuming the brutish mentality of a bygone era in hip-hop’s charismatic poetic history, Ren.y.c
This is a stirring, deeply human track that serves as a call to arms when we need one the most. Different Moon’s “The Underdog” isn’t a crassly obvious anthem. There’s no guitar hero-esque solo, no soaring Freddie Mercury-style vocals, and no cliches galore that sound cribbed from a sports special or Hollywood movie. I hear a
The fresh and individualistic is still out there – just be willing to look. If you give Bray and The Dens a chance, however, there’s no need to look further. Bray’s personal songwriting vision draws from a recognizable frame of reference, longtime music devotees will spot his influences, but he filters them through talents that
Steve Wilson’s reputation as a bandleader, luthier, producer, engineer, and songwriter places him in the forefront of modern Americana and bluegrass. He’s enjoyed a three-decade run playing the music he loves and has released two fine collections in recent years under the Wilson Banjo Co. banner entitled Spirits in the Hills and Six Degrees of Separation. He has
Few modern pop singles come as inspired and thought out as Alice the G00n’s “CYA”. Listeners responded by catapulting the track to #2 on the Mediabase Top 40 Independent Artist chart, and the video will bring the cut renewed attention. “CYA” richly deserves such success when taking stock of its well-rounded presentation and direct lyrics.
Chris St. John’s intimate brand of singer/songwriter country musings carries listeners aloft with the title track of his new EP With You. The frank autobiographical trappings of the material never pose any obstacles for us enjoying the song as St. John’s talents allow him to tap into a near-universal strand of human experience. Marrying those autobiographical
2 Shadows’ “Mad God” harbors enough grandeur and violence for a half dozen bands. There’s almost something orchestral about the way 2 Shadows develops the single that you hear in the alternating light and heavy passages, the presence of piano, and the flamethrower intensity of its emotions. There’s abundant artistry here, but you get the
Texas native Chris Chitsey paid his dues as a singer early on belting out classic country songs for customers at his dad’s downtown Austin barbecue restaurant and entertainment venue, but he wasn’t quite ready for the big stage. It’s only after Chitsey refined his burgeoning talents in the hardscrabble world of the Texas honkytonk circuit
Say what you will about pop music as a whole, but there’s no denying that Nashville belongs to a new generation of players, and among the sharpest of those players is Hannah Ellis. Her new album is That Girl, and when any of its songs begin to play, its title starts to make a lot of sense. In
Thank you for joining us today! We are joined by Ally Bakst to chat about her music and future in music! We’re excited to learn more about you! Can you tell us about the inspiration behind your latest release? What motivated you to create this particular piece of art? Thanks for having me! I actually wrote
True artistry is rare. What we often hear from musical performers, instead, is a combination of discipline and workmanlike self-expression. Formula, as well. True artistry, however, manifests itself as the ability to work within recognizable forms while finding otherwise unseen or unheard variations within the expected where the musical artist’s genuine vision and personality emerge.
Georgia’s Charlsey Etheridge doesn’t enjoy the same mainstream cachet as many of her contemporaries, some of whom she’s written songs for, and as such may fly under the radar. This review is an attempt to redress that near-criminal neglect. The truth is that I may have never heard of her if it wasn’t for my
