Herman Martinez – Continuity Errors – Album Review Ladies and gentlemen…The Hermanator returns! An album two years in the making? Aren’t we supposed to measure the shaft from the back of the balls? I was sure that’s how it was done…if it’s not, damn am I in trouble. Anyhow – by my count it’s been […]Read More
Dan Sonenberg – Mint Explosion – EP Review “It was a time of great hope, with media proclaiming a ‘return to normality,’ restaurants reopening, and folks beginning to unmask…” Oh trust me my man…they’ve done nothing but unmask. Whether they’re doing the right things physically or not I have no idea – but there’s no […]Read More
Frank Migliorelli And The Dirt Nappers – We’re Not Kiddin’ Around – Album Review “I just want parents and kids to remember how important reading and books are.” Well heck…technically I’m neither of those things, though my wife might tell ya differently. Thankfully, I agree with the sentiment 100% – and I actually recognize quite […]Read More
Eon MC Etc. & The Libra – Race Music 2 – Album Review The sequel y’all – and five years exactly to the day here on our pages since I reviewed the original Race Music back in 2016! Honestly I always wonder how that kinda stuff happens…sure there’s a possibility that it’s a planned event, […]Read More

Dav!D&Clara – “Ain’t No Such Thing” / “Earth Shaker” – Singles Review Has Spotify got these details correct? Bandcamp…hmmm…says the same thing. The official website? Different info. So…the score is 2 to 1 here…either Dav!D&Clara have indeed been around making music since 1981, which would be a full forty years according to the dates listed […]Read More
Barista – Open Sesame Vol. 3 A Different Beat – Singles Review Alrighty…let me see if I’ve got this straight here. We’ve got the first Barista album that came out in 2014, called Daydream…which was followed up by the next record called 57 in 2016 two years later…and then five more years down the road, […]Read More
Richard Lynch – “Grandpappy” – Single Review So…yeah…tougher one to call here once again for sure. Really well-played when it comes right down to it, there’s nothing I’d take away from the new Richard Lynch single in that regard…the musicianship, the vocals…it’s all downright hot stuff for Country when it comes right down to it. […]Read More
The Nied’s Hotel Band – “The Day The Lady Cried” – Single Review So let’s see here…lots of positives to be found in what The Nied’s Hotel Band has created on this single, even if it might not exactly be my thing. Maybe it’s the Canadian in me…maybe it’s the pesky globalist I am…it’s hard […]Read More
Josh Christina – “Weekend Night In America” – Single Review Another highlight example of how warped time really is over here on this side of the screen – to me, it was just yesterday when I was listening to Josh Christina’s single called “Friend Zone” and I can still hear the main hooks repeating in […]Read More
