0120 – The Pit (Live @ The Shack 2013) Album

Every time I start missing home even just a little, it’s usually because I was checking out something by The Pit via video, pictures, audio…any of the memories we shared over the past years…so I figured why not celebrate this band just a little more.  Probably worked more with the two twins Tyler & Trev […]Read More

Norine Braun – Gone To The Spirits

Norine Braun – Gone To The Spirits – Singles Review Norine Braun…based out of my own hometown, back in good ol’ Vancouver, British Columbia…I wonder if that’s why I feel like I recognize this name somehow.  For the record, I haven’t had the privilege of meeting this spirited artist…but I feel like her sound/style of […]Read More

Lost Cosmonauts – Lost Cosmonauts

Lost Cosmonauts – Lost Cosmonauts – EP Review This one time, at Ladies Rock Camp… Gotta admit…it’s a short write-up on the social-media boards of the Lost Cosmonauts, but apparently that’s where it all started, right there at Ladies Rock Camp.  Okay…this is a pinch-me moment – that’s a thing?  I didn’t know that such […]Read More

Yooda – Hiroshima

Yooda – Hiroshima – Album Review With explosive, in-your-face rhymes and gigantic beats, our homie Yooda is about to drop the bomb – welcome to Hiroshima.  The beginning of this record says it all, “Enola Gay” references the first plane to ever drop the atomic-bomb…so if that tells you anything about the ambitions of this […]Read More

Morgan Wilson – “Fine”

Morgan Wilson – “Fine” – Single Review I think our new lady-friend Morgan Wilson is on to something potentially really special here.  I really dig the amount of pure-emotion she puts into the fragile & angelic qualities of her tone & sound throughout this single “Fine.”  Something about the real sincerity of her approach and […]Read More

Peak Arrival – Way Up

Peak Arrival – Way Up – EP Review From the moment that “Life Goes On” started the Way Up EP from Peak Arrival I felt like I was in for something fun, something unique.  Immediately greeted by a playful piano melody and a beautiful set of vocals from both Meaghan Mader and Luigi Cararetto – […]Read More

Race Against Fate – “Fearlessly”

Race Against Fate – “Fearlessly” – Single Review Some of our best moments creatively come from some of the most tragic events in our lives.  The strength of an emotional connection can lead an artist into some of their most sincere songs…even if they’re only initially written with self-therapy intended, as a way out of […]Read More

TrackSevenBand – The Try And The Fail

TrackSevenBand – The Try And The Fail – EP Review I feel like I don’t get to hear music like this often enough…right now, TrackSevenBand is completely hitting the spot for me.  With a blend of solid instrumentation, real ideas in the writing and professional execution – the multilayered TrackSevenBand is kicking out the smooth-jams […]Read More
