Elizabeth Sombart’s approach to music is well-rounded on a technical level but other aspects of her gifts deserve mention. She’s headed the Fondation Résonnance since 1998. It’s an organization whose aim is bringing classical music to segments of the population who may not otherwise be exposed to its riches. It adopts a relatively cutting edge

Vikki SOTA has the sort of backstory that makes a cynic like me rethink my point of view. Perhaps life really is what you make it. You can’t help but admire how SOTA, a product of a challenging upbringing, nevertheless worked day and night through college, moved on after that to open his own recording
Instrumentally, to say that the new single “PFH” from Vineet is an exotic number really wouldn’t be doing it justice; although primarily drawn from Latin pop influences, this is a track that takes a little more from Europop and retro EDM than it initially suggests on the surface level. The synthetics here are subtle, while

Author Mary Shelley’s classic novel Frankenstein has spawned and inspired innumerable interpretations and has many uses. Musical uses are few but notable. Edgar Winter’s band, for example, scored a hit during his 1970’s heyday with an one-time AM/FM radio staple entitled “Frankenstein”. AV Super Sunshine makes use of Shelley’s creation, as well, with his latest single “Frankenstein”.
Hi Joey! Thank you for speaking with me today! Anytime! What got you into music? I would say the most important factor is that I am blind and so sound is my universe and music is a beautiful way to fill that universe. I also feel like music is a natural extension of my spirit,
KinderCrowdControl! We immediately are drawn to your visuals when it comes to your musics artwork. Do you start from a visionary perspective when it comes to making new music? Edem: I am a fine artist as well as a musician. A little background on this… I started as a musician, but was always fascinated by album
With pop singers who have a growing following like Brooke Josephson, I always say there’s no point in teasing the audience with what we already know you can do better than most of the players currently attracting hype in your scene. Josephson gets this, and if she didn’t I doubt we’d have the complete juggernaut
Billy Jeter’s Shine Eye Landing starts off like you’re hearing the tale from a man burdened with soul and experience. “Orion”, the opener of the album leans into this aesthetic with a slow burn ambient driven guitar with lingering organ accompaniment. The lyricism focusing on themes of journeys, self-discovery, and independence with various lines paying
Are you playing anywhere live this summer? I just performed here locally in Miami Beach and have another scheduled for the end of summer, but hoping to pick up the pace a bit! Obviously, all of us are eager to get back on stage, but a lot of venues are going about it a little
“Special Day”…and indeed it was the day singer, songwriter, musician Jon Butcher released the single, a prelude to his album with the same name coming out later this year. “Special Day” is a high spirited, politically charged reggae beat global music phenomena. The illegitimate child of Nile Rodgers and BB King, Butcher’s music is a

Dici’s buzz isn’t what makes him such an authentic artist. When listening to his single “Five Rings,” there’s a sense of yearning that transcends the lyrics entirely and bleeds into the very fabric of the instrumentation, bridging the gap between artist and backdrop in a manner only possible when both elements are as focused and
Donning a brilliant album cover that feels destined to grow iconic with fans, rock group Pistols At Dawn are returning to music with their latest (and quite possibly strongest to date) release in the form of an EP: Nocturnal Youth. The group has been amping up towards the project by releasing singles to fully tease

After hearing Get Hammered, your answer to the question, “who is your favorite Cow Punk band?” is destined to be, Jesse And The Hogg Bros. The Texas based band has taken a glistening genre, and given it a more robust identity. Their new full length EP, the aforementioned, Get Hammered, has every right to be
A slow, somber piano and strings begin to play as a bass creeps in and kicks up the tempo. Suddenly, horns flare and the laidback song you thought you were a few steps ahead of kicks itself up by about five gears, sweeping you off your feet — with Love & Conflict’s first track “Glamour
“Yesterday’s News” kicks off Rob Alexander’s third album Dream Out Loud with an irrepressible bounce. It has an inviting mood, without question, but some may be dissatisfied with the brittle slashing guitar chords, but I believe it dovetails into the song’s overall demeanor. Alexander’s vocal tone has its own unique flavor unlike many in modern pop music
Sam Green and the Time Machine’s creative run between the years 2013 and 2018 is nearly unrivaled in modern music. He maintained a release schedule during that time often dwarfing the existing catalogs of bands with multi-decade histories with five emerging during 2013 and three during the years 2017 and 2018. These are not brief
Where was the first place you ever performed with Water Tower? The first place we ever performed was at a dive bar in Portland, OR called “Slabtown”. The person who “booked” us had seen busking outside of a convenient store downtown. He paid us in weed and salvia and apparently the check he promised is
‘Jab the world’ is being played everywhere. What’s the recipe behind your fresh sound and approach? I am grateful to the multitude of radio stations in the US, Europe and many places in the world playing the song and for listeners requesting it. Lyrically, Jab The World has hit home as it has an optimistic
“Like a Virgin, come and talk to me. It’s not me, it’s you I like.” The opening line of Heistheartist’s EP The Book of Mary echoes across the track and bounces over a beat one might expect to hear in the bar or nightclub before ever getting play in a church. This very approach bears
Raquel Kiaraa is almost intimidatingly impressive. A true multihyphenate artist in her own right, this singer/songwriter/actress/coach/poet has had her hands in what seems like a little of everything. At 32 deciding to try her hand at singing and learning piano and a way to integrate her natural skills as a poet into their next logical
Ladies and gentlemen, Mac is back! Hughie Mac, known for his comprehensive albums of familiar standards, classics, and hits all titled some variant of “Sings Some Great Songs,” returns to the frontlines of classy music covers with his fourth stab at the concept. Standing tall at a whopping seventy-minute runtime, Hughie Mac Sings Some Great
What has been the highlight of 2021 so far? Today I was interviewed on my hometown news station Living East Tennessee the tv show. It meant so much to me because growing up all I wanted was for people in my hometown to understand my vision for myself. In the past I was too shy to

Conceptz have seemingly captured lightning in a bottle, once again, on their new single, “Drippin And Drownin.” Though the song is slightly out of the box, it is incredibly well arranged, and MC, HighRowGlyphFix, once again delivers a stellar performance. Conceptz make cerebral Hip Hop, that is cleverly formatted to showcase the exceptional skills of
Few things distinguish the success of Vineet’s new single “Jab the World” than its impressive placement on the Digital Radio Tracker Top 50 Rock Airplay Chart. Reaching number twelve as of current writing outpaces current releases from other musical luminaries such as Greta Van Fleet, Slipknot’s lead singer Corey Taylor, and System of a Down,
What was a childhood dream of yours? A childhood dream of mine was to perform in musicals, I love theatre! I wanted to do everything, sing, dance, and design, perform….. work at Disney! Who do you turn to when you need someone most? That’s easy my mom! I can always count on her advice whether
What was a childhood dream of yours? I had an incredibly overactive imagination, so there were a lot of them! My biggest ambition was probably an astronaut or pilot. I wanted to fly, and it’s still a bucket-list goal of mine. Who do you turn to when you need someone most? My mom. I was
