MUSIC REVIEWS

Rock music has undergone some serious identity crisis in the last few years. I always say at what point are we just going the throw away the concept of musical genre as a way to quantify these things because the lines are getting blurrier and blurrier. Like would you consider …

Arkansas born singer/songwriter Billy Jeter’s forthcoming album Shine Eye Landing is a new peak in his musical career. The ten-song collection expands on the merits of his past work without venturing away from what has made him successful so far. Maintaining such balance while developing his art is one of Shine Eye Landing’s …

You can’t claim Indian singer/songwriter Vineet doesn’t have the best intentions. Or lacks idealism. His latest single “Jab the World” is a timely track written in the maelstrom of a worldwide pandemic that has left millions sick, dying, or dead.

It’s interesting that the group has described themselves as rockers “arguably” past their prime, but I would certainly call this a hopeful second act as they show off their range and …
