Cardiff based duo, No Thee No Ess are set to release their latest album, Dimmer Switch, on Sept 17. The record is a fully fleshed and deliberate offering of one of the most underrepresented genres in all of music today; psychedelia. Living in what is a subjective era of absurdity, …

Ed Roman’s 2021 continues moving forward on a positive note with his latest single release “Happiness”. The songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and singer is a proven success on terrestrial and satellite radio alike and his new song should have a similar, if not greater, impact. His voice has an appealing weathered sound …

Pamela Hopkins’ new single “Back When” is the latest high point in the Little Rock, Arkansas based singer/songwriter’s solo career. It’s a recording career that began more than two decades ago with the release of her 1995 debut album. She pursued different paths until the 2010’s when her attentions turned, …

Timed in part to help promote his upcoming Italian tour, FrankySelector’s latest single release “Ice Breaker” will be a certain showstopper during those upcoming shows.

Sun King Rising isn’t a band in the traditional sense of the term, but you discover it doesn’t matter seconds into Sun King Rising’s first album release Delta Tales. Singer/songwriter/musician John Blangero’s desire to issue this work under a moniker likely reflects, at least in part, his musical background.

Furious adrenaline in the form of a bass and drum dynamic. A stoic synth melody in the foreground, a sense of danger hanging over the back. In Dub Fu Masters and Head Fake’s “One Step,” there’s no telling what sort of ominous creatures are lurking around in the darkness surrounding …

I like to believe, somewhere beyond the grave, Terry Kath is smiling. Todd Omohundro attended a 1977 Chicago concert and the brilliant guitarist riveted the young man with his transformative six string skills.
