Taylor Roche – “Never Like That” – Single Review Beautifully heartbreaking. Not just the song mind you…the process as well. From what I’ve read in my travels around the internet & the information out there, “Never Like That” was quite the emotional journey to create. Imagine you’re Taylor Roche for a moment…a young dude with […]Read More
Selma Hrönn Maríudóttir – “Savour The Moment” Feat. Eric Castiglia & Kostas Vass – Single Review Rock solid! Well done Selma. I get it, I get it…it’s not like she has a name like Slayer or Anvil to cue you into the fact that sometimes she wants to rock, but make no mistake, songwriter Selma […]Read More
Brannon – Everyday Heroes – Album Review Some people are just born with a gift of understanding songwriting & knowing where to find the melody at the heart of it all…and Brannon has definitely proven to be one of those artists with that level of natural talent throughout the years. You’ll hear it for yourself […]Read More
Sean Shiff – “Across The Street” – Single Review You’d really have to have the hardest of hearts not to like Sean Shiff & his music. I’m still taking a lot of these tunes in myself, having only known about the man for a couple years or so through reviews on his previous singles like […]Read More
New American Hustle – Destination Go-Go – Album Review Ballsy…I dig it. I mean…I kinda figured I would after reading about the formation of New American Hustle and had a look at the listed influences…all-in-all, it’s got all the ingredients that tend to appeal to me. I won’t give it all away, but to sum […]Read More

Steven Faulkner – “Leech” – Single Review There we go brother. Steven’s been hard at work creating some killer cuts this year…it wasn’t all that long ago that I reviewed his last single “War For The World” – which for the record, I quite thoroughly enjoyed. I did however, add in my usual two-cents for […]Read More
Jordan Paul – “Emerald Glass” – Single Review No objections here y’all. For the record, there’s a vast difference between being satisfied with something and indifference. Sometimes when it comes to music, you can hear a tune that you enjoy, that you know you’d never turn off, and still not necessarily be running to your […]Read More
Danielle Hollobaugh – “Patiently” – Single Review There’s not a day that goes by here that I don’t find a new artist or band to worry about. Danielle Hollobaugh is not one of them. And if I’m being truthful with you…that’s a conclusion I came to with a single spin of her latest cut “Patiently.” […]Read More
Sinistra – “Art Of Manipulation” – Single Review This single audibly defines the word epic. Quite honestly, I can think of legions of people I personally know that would absolutely love what Sinistra has created with “Art Of Manipulation” – this is one of those hybrid cuts that truly has it all. From the immaculate […]Read More
