Hello Sam! Thank you for speaking with me today! Thank you so much for having me! Tell us about your latest release! Our newest song is called “I Have A Crush On Lisa Loeb”, I suppose the title is pretty self-explanatory but needless to say the song is about the singer/songwriter Lisa Loeb who I am a

First impressions of Vineet’s latest single “Turning Back Time” will have you checking your calendar to make sure you haven’t given more than an inkling of truth to the song’s title from the insane production throwback the song instantly lobs at your head as it all but literally turns back the clock with its retro
When it comes to painting a picture of your band, the broadest strokes come in the form of albums and you can nitpick and get down to the finer, nittier and grittier aspects of how you represent yourself by the singles you choose. The albums used to generally give audiences a fairly basic understanding of
“It Starts With Hello” is the newest single by See Your Shadow, and it’s all about the power and meaning, of simply saying, hi. See Your Shadow is a concept by Singer/Songwriter, Michael Coleman. Coleman says the project is comprised of several different musicians coming together on various timelines to create something unique and perpetual.
Hi Mark! Thank you for chatting with me today! Thank you so much for having me! Have you been working on any upcoming projects you want to tell us about? Actually I’m just about to head into the studio to work on a new LP! It’s a concept album all about the heroes journey. The idea
The sense of depth on display from Mauri Dark’s debut album is immediate from the moment the opening track “Poison Woman” begins, with Dark’s grizzly baritone decreeing “One is less than two when two become one; I am half a man since you came along.” Far from subtle, sure, but the upfront nature is something
“More Than Meets the Eye” opens Kansas City resident Bill Abernathy’s new EP release Who Are You, Who Am I? with more aggression than you might expect. It’s a forceful rocker, albeit spiked with a generous dollop of blues, and Abernathy’s songwriting makes use of dynamics you’d expect from a rock band than an Americana-themed
When you go into an album with the expectations thrown your way that the subject you’re tackling is a band from Finland, you generally temper your expectations to something primed more towards the metal genre; my American ignorance leaves me projecting the very little worldview I have towards anything outside of the United States, and
Covers polarize fans of both the original artist and the players picking up the song and making it their own, but in the case of Jeff Lake & Cellophane Flowers’ Beatles tunes, everyone might be in agreement that this is the right outfit to cover the rock n’ roll legends. Two of my favorite Beatles
The Mark isn’t shy about warning us of the hellish, downright dangerous games awaiting us on the bayou beats beneath “Louisiana Voodoo,” but with a little assistance from axman Tony Joe White, the imagery in his lyrics comes to life before us in more than a melodic fashion. The harmonies here feel divine in spots,
Electronica is at an apex that critics can’t seem to stop talking about this season, and if you’re curious what all of the fuss has been about, I’d recommend taking a peek at the genre’s esteemed underground and specifically contemporary acts like Elektragaaz. Unlike a lot of their predecessors, Elektragaaz isn’t creatively limited by the
Equal parts indie rock, gypsy punk, dark folk and garage rock, there’s no describing the sound The Dirty Shirts are rocking in their new single “Gin & Tonic” without using words like hybrid and experimental, yet I’d hesitate in lumping their aesthetics in with the vast pool of left-field pop acts dominating the underground at
When you’ve got the precision attack of Greye, you don’t need much more than a sexy set of chugging riffs to make a hit single even better, and in their new cut “Over My Head,” the Florida-stationed rockers give us what could be some of the heaviest-hitting guitar parts of their career to date. Instead
The new single by R&B Singer/Songwriter, Darrell Kelley, is centered around the case of Ronald Greene. Ronald Greene was a 49 year old, African American male, who died as a result of an altercation with Monroe Police. Kelley’s material is typically based around African American subjects, who lost their lives to alleged police brutality/excessive force.
When I was in high school, I tried to rap and sing the popular Eminem/Rihanna duet “Love the Way You Lie” as part of the talent show. It was as a single person, not as part of a duet, and it went about as well as you’d expect. For most people, there’s generally a strong
Doug Kistner’s talents are enough to win the day for his latest single “Don’t Look Down” but he’s had some skillful assistance helping him this far. The two preceding singles “Only Road I Know” and “Since We Left Our Dreams” scored as major successes for this new solo artist based, in part, on the contributions
I think today, we’re afraid of vulnerability. At the very least, we’re uncomfortable with someone expressing their vulnerability because it’s a brave thing to do. We want to experience these moments in private, and we all know the feeling of finding an album we clutch tightly and feel like it’s speaking to us directly. I’m
Shine Eye Landing, the latest album from Arkansan Billy Jeter isn’t exactly something that’s reinventing the wheel on Country music, but it was never really designed to. It serves as an almost anthology looking into the lived-in moments and thoughts of a third-generation Arkansan with a lot to say in his beating heart. I will
The art of rock ’n’ roll is more than alive and well and that’s thanks to Tedi Brunetti, also appropriately known as the Queen of Pittsburgh. I hadn’t heard much from her before this album, but upon researching her seasoned past tied to the New York City music scene, I came to realize she did
Hughie Mac loves music, and he wants you to love music too, more specifically his music. With his album “Hughie Mac Sings Some Great Songs, Pt.4” he certainly makes a compelling argument as to why you should. With a laid-back crooners sensibility and an eclectic array of classics at his helm, he turns what could
