Really had a great time with these guys at the studio back in BC in 2015 – Aaron Lindstrom and a handful of musicians/supporters/management all came out to the studio for an interview/performance on SBS Live This Week and we spent the whole time in great conversation, laughing and chattin’ it up about what life […]Read More
Katrina Charles – Where This Began – EP Review Beautiful sounds from a beautiful place…good ol’ Seattle…my home away from home.

And then […]Read More

Opportunities like this are extremely awesome. We met This Day Burns for the first time in 2013 and went on to establish a solid relationship with this band full of extreme rock-warriors in the years to follow.

Alien Skin – European Electronic Cinema – Album Review Always inspiring to read about the life of a musician and listen to all the twists and turns that their music & career will take them; case in point, the man behind the music of Alien Skin, George Pappas.
