My attention was recently brought to Matthew Heller, a post-grunge folk-rock singer-songwriter from Portland Oregon. His self-titled release is currently available online and he has a new album in the works. Let’s jump into the interview, but first I want to say that when I first listened to this record I became an immediate fan. […]
Bellamys Jesse and Noah, drive hard – “Driven Back”
Big thanks to Kim Grant for sending me a copy of “Driven Back” by Jesse and Noah (Bellamy – yep more Bellamy brothers) of Franklin, Tennesse. This isn’t the first I’ve heard from the brothers, but it is definitely the best yet, and that’s saying something. I really don’t know how to classify the record, […]
Black Tar Pineapple by Rob Loncto Is A Worthwhile Experience
Black Tar Pineapple is an experimental folk rock experience that lies somewhere between The Who and Nirvana. Rob Loncto’s newest album blends elements of acoustic, folk, and rock to create an in-your-face wall of sound reminiscent of the bad boy rock acts from the ’60s and ’70s: The Who, Led Zeppelin, you know where I’m […]
Brother Octopus Rises From The Abyss To Induce Tentacle Trauma
Deep in the darkness of the sea lived Brother Octopus. He spent his time studying ancient history as well as learning to become a multi-instrumentalist. After all, a lot can be accomplished with 8 “arms”. Mastering guitar, piano, accordion, and various other instruments and noise-making machines, it wasn’t long before Brother Octopus was pulling in […]
Kalen Is Falling From The Sun
Kalen has soul and a voice ready to cause an epidemic of addiction. Her upcoming release, Falling From The Sun, is a groove-laden, blues-filled, electro-rock experiement that would make Peter Gabriel and Portishead proud. “Having been in a funk band for so long, I love a purposeful groove. I love writing licks and rock riffs […]
Serapicos Is A Town
Serapicos Is A Town, no…really. When Gabriel Serapicos took a trip through the tiny rural city of Serapicos, some of the blurry things suddenly became clear. “The town was creepy. It had a small church but not much else. This song [Serapicos Is A Town] represented where all the songs were situated; everything started to […]
Socionic Explores Identity In This Rock Symphony
If you are a hard rock/progressive/metal junkie (like myself), then Identity by Socionic is your new fix. Los Angeles based Socionic is dope (I first wanted to say amazing but then I felt that was too cheesy and cliche). Identity is a work of art. A passionate exploration of identity through abstract visual and aural stimuli. […]
Jackopierce is Everywhere All The Time
In 1988, Jack O’Neill and Cary Pierce came together in Dallas, Texas to form the alternative acoustic rock folk pop duo Jackopierce (putting a heavy focus on vocal harmonies and catchy melodies). While performing cover songs in a dingy club in Dallas one night, Jackopierce decided to whip up a tasty tune (on the spot) […]
Anya’s The Giving Is A Gift of Wisdom and Storytelling That Touches Souls
Anya Parker-Lentz might seem like an average teenage girl on the outside… You know – swimming, yoga, writing, and giggle fits. But something amazing happens when she sits down behind a piano. It’s as if she was born for music. This 16 year old singer/songwriter from New Jersey delivers songs as if she is an […]
Blue Skies Black – Mike Grosshandler
On February 29, 2012, after over three years of work, I finally released my latest solo album, “Blue Skies Black”. It’s more than just acoustic guitars and vocals this time around. I produced and recorded most of the tracks myself, mostly in my home studio, performing nearly every instrument on the album. The album also […]
