Austin, TX based Cody Jasper is a chameleon of Rock N’ Roll – releasing music that is themed around the way he lives and shared life experiences with his fans.

Let the Day Decide is the latest release from New York state-based singer/songwriter George Mallas. Even a single listen to the album’s ten tracks reveals Mallas to be among the most thoughtful songwriters working today, bar none, as the compositions are full of evidence. Notice how so many of the songs sound expansive, full of space,
It’s important to note that not all musical artists depict their social consciousness in the same way. Alex Lopez writing about the world he lives in, circa 2022, isn’t the same as Bono writing about it in the same year or any other politically minded singer/songwriter. Lopez knows how to connect those issues with listeners
Singer/songwriter Mark Henry Ham makes a splash with his new album Casper. Ham brings back the magic of Americana with a collection of songs he’s been working on over the last few years. They all come together on Casper, the vivacious feel-good album full of anthems and love songs that already feel like familiar favorites.
Bob Morelli has been a music industry player for more than three decades and his influence continues to grow. The latest vehicle for this longtime force in distribution, marketing, and A&R, among other areas of expertise, is his company Cool Is Forever Consulting, LLC. It’s the next logical step forward for Morelli following a dozen
“Open When” is the ethereal debut single from newcomers SistersJ. Elizabeth and Lily Jackson are real life sisters who have been singing together for as long as they can remember. Music has always been a part of their lives, Elizabeth just got her degree in music education with honors and Lily just graduated as salutatorian
Circus No. 9’s self-titled album is the next turn in the development of progressive bluegrass, an elaboration on the style’s time-tested tradition that aims to move the genre forward without deserting its fundamentals. Ask any casual music fan what they know about bluegrass and, if they can answer at all, the bulk will likely mention
The improbably named Elektragaaz’s new EP The Synaesthetic Picture Show Now Playing, Part 5 likewise offers an improbable blend of traditional instruments, synths, keyboards, and percussion over the course of six tracks defying neat and tidy categorization. The band’s topsy-turvy melting pot of musical voices is, however, anchored by a handful of constants. Guitarist Tom Elektron makes
You just released a new single and have a new one on the way. Tell us more about why you chose to lead with these singles in particular? How do you make that decision? Girlz on Bikes is my current single. This is true lol! When I was creating it though, it never crossed my
Known for its castles, The Alps, Sigmund Freud, the setting for The Sound of Music and probably the late pop star Falco, Austria is a beautiful blend of historical culture and modern twists. You might not think of it as being the next country or Americana capital of the world? Not yet at least. In
Holt Vaughn’s second volume in his These Songs series opens in scintillating fashion. “Got to Pray (Satan He Don’t Rest)” blasts from your speakers with unmistakable blues rock authority. One of the defining elements in Vaughn’s songwriting separating him from many other artists with ties to the Christian contemporary scene is balance. His songs never rely on
Steve Markoff and Patricia Lazzara’s new single “Layla” is an unexpected delight. The alto and concert flutist, respectively, revamp Eric Clapton’s rock classic into a jazzy instrumental with light classical affectations. This cover is a likely candidate for the duo’s forthcoming third album set to hit in June of this year, but even a single
Americana’s greatest material has been born of rich harmonies, starting with a powerful vocal, of course, which is essentially the biggest cornerstone of David Sparrow’s Beggars & Choosers. While there’s something to be said about the poetic depth that Sparrow has as a lyricist, this is an even more melodic effort than I would normally expect
In any of its incarnations, the first element that strikes out at us in the song “I’m Falling off of the World” by Project Grand Slam is its rambunctious beat, and considering the potency its players are giving it in the new single from The Shakespeare Concert, this is all the more accurate a statement.
Aditi Iyer is building something special. The Indian singer/songwriter’s first two EP releases Dollhouse and The Girl They See received a lot of airplay from major platforms around the world and generated considerable critical enthusiasm. She hasn’t rushed her releases and takes sufficient time between each one to finetune every aspect of her material. It makes each new release
Brian Shapiro and his band’s second album, It’s Amazing, includes ten songs that you will agree, without qualification, are different from anything else out there today. It isn’t necessarily that he’s remade the songwriting wheel or anything so groundbreaking; instruments are still necessary, songs still have titles, and you’ll hear verse, chorus, verse – at least
Singer/songwriters are at the heart of the pop movement we’re seeing on all corners of the globe right now, and in his new single “Trespassing,” Morten Nygaard gives listeners plenty of reasons to take his style seriously. The passion that he offers his lyrics with is too moving to be artificial, too human to be
