It all comes back to a great story – just listen to the new album Sea Change from Montana’s Corey Stapleton And The Pretty Pirates. Stapleton, a Naval Veteran, certainly has an interesting backstory. The Veteran-turned-politician-turned singer/songwriter wows in this 12-song outing. Covering a variety of universal emotions, Stapleton also strikes a unique chord with this patriotic

Good music knows no borders, no language barriers, and no politics; it touches us from across an ocean, a continent, without ever skipping a beat. Gabriele Saro isn’t interested in making region-specific pop, and in the aesthetic-blending new singles “Can’t Fight the Feeling” and “I Don’t Mind,” he presents his artistry as being a lot
Hungary’s Bernadett has a family tree teeming with music. Her grandpa Jozsef Suha enjoyed popular and critical acclaim as a violinist for several years before disagreements with the Communist authorities of the time wrecked his career. He’s since enjoyed a robust revival and has a place of honor now in the country’s musical history. His
Most proud achievement as an artist: I’m proudest that I was able to work my way into the industry when I did, and to associate with very talented collaborators. I became a full time DJ and music producer in my late 20’s, now early 30’s. It’s common for most musicians to second their music career to
When you hear the word ‘collide’ you might conjure up feelings of hurt, of moving objects gaining momentum and crashing into another object. In the instrumental, “Collide” you might say two flutes melt together into the basin of a piano bed. Nothing but airy, weightless tones come over you. “Collide” from flutists Steve Markoff and
Rock has undisputedly been struggling in the past ten years to maintain the relevant influence it had over pop culture for so many decades, but if it’s going to make a grand comeback in the 2020s, it’s going to need a lot of help from bands like Starfire. Starfire’s new album Dreaming of Your Destiny is one
Clawing away at the silence with a textured melody only meant to grow stronger with every beat, “Dead Messenger” establishes an angst-ridden – albeit muted – vibe right from the start. It’s definitely true that this isn’t the only song on the new eponymous EP from Illuminaut to incorporate physicality as a means of making
February 4, 2022 [Long Island, NY] For the second year in a row, Long Island, New York songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Joe Piket has won the prestigious Long Island Entertainer of the year award in the piano entertainer category. Piket has been described as “a more edgy Billy Joel” and “the Bruce Springsteen of Long Island” by music critics. Rave reviews for Joe’s CDs have appeared in Newsday, Good Times,
With elegant melodies that touch on post-punk and indie rock themes of yesteryear, there’s an instant sense of urgency coupled with poise that greets us at the start of The Cold Head’s new single “Spirit of the Beehive,” the first cut off of their upcoming album Angels in the Attic. It isn’t all instrumental potency; the
Award Winning musician Lainey Dionne is talking about why music never stops! Are you making any rounds with testing out new music on the road? I wish I was out on the road right now! With the pandemic sticking around I don’t feel that it’s safe for me to tour yet. However, I am doing
The bass lets out a singular hushed moan as we sink into the depths of “Traveling with Wayne,” the first song in the four-part tracklist of Mumex Trio’s Folds of Time, and as heady as this tonal introduction is, it doesn’t represent the most avant-garde moment we’re to encounter in this album. Contrarily, this is
Elektragaaz is here to score your life with their newest addition in their ongoing series, The Synaesthetic Picture Show, Now Playing Part 4. Elektragaaz is a multi-fusion instrumental group based out of New York City, headed by a mysterious figure that goes by Poppo Redband. The group pulls inspiration from almost every genre you can
When a record sounds or just feels conceptual aesthetically, it’s often burdened with a sense of overthinking the narrative characteristic of artists with a lot of ambition but little ability to fully realize their goals. If ever there was an exception to this unfortunate modern standard, I personally happen to think that Robert Miller’s Project
It’s not staggered, but there’s definitely a bit of tension-building technique guiding every note of “Rollaway” out of the speakers and into our minds this January. Go to Space Die’s debut album Red Air Don’t Care is filled with a tense, atmospheric rock of the purely instrumental variety, and while the absence of lyrics leaves the ultimate
Austrian indie artist Mary Broadcast and her band have established a solid reputation as a superb and balanced vehicle for her lyrics. The release Panic, however, elevates her art to an even higher level than she’s known thanks to its impressive scope. She chronicles, over the course of six songs, the trajectory of an intense romantic
The one and only, Dici, is at it again. This time, he’s picking up the pace, with the runaway romantic freight, known as “u n i.” If you aren’t already familiar with Dici, he’s kind of one of those types, you have to see to believe. To be perfectly honest, my first impression of him,
Deborah Lee Fong’s prolificness and high-energy is something we should all aspire to in these uncertain times. After all, for a veteran, bilingual Panamanian-American actress, things probably haven’t always come easily. But Fong has built herself up through the years as an acclaimed theater performer, having participated in numerous productions nationwide as well as having
Linda Collins is an actor, performer, and former musician who needless to say has been riding high for the last couple of years – with no signs of slowing down. The Covid-19 pandemic and all its related, or otherwise associated aftereffects have shaken up the traditional milieus of industry. This is particularly pertinent when it
