Oozing out of the speakers with a molten-hot riff that could destroy just about anything that gets in its path, “Driving Me Insane” starts off with a heavier frontend than some of its counterparts in the tracklist of Insane, but nevertheless, it’s just as melodic an anthem as any other on this latest cut from Tom

If you’re a fan of adult contemporary crossovers with a gospel twist, you need to give Lavendine and their single “Rapture” a close listen this summer. Acquiring a lot of buzz from the indie press, “Rapture” fuses together some of the best elements from pop, adult contemporary rock and CCM to bridge the gap between
There are a lot of voices, not a majority but still a significant group, speaking out that the hip-hop genre has fallen into a rut, struggles with an epidemic of imitation, and labors under the weight of its clichés. Elz Bentley is a rebuke to that idea. The Lexington, Kentucky based performer, vocalist, and writer
With a patient picking, Streaking in Tongues invites us into the bucolic string play of “Everyone Who Ever Cared,” one of the cornerstone tracks of their new record Live from Lockdown, but this instrumental charisma is only the tip of the iceberg for what this LP has in store for listeners. Tracks like the imaginative and
When you work with greatness, your own game elevates. Just ask singer/songwriter, Andre Mayon. The artist behind “Love At First Sight” breaks into the indie scene with an unembellished tune that runs circles in the listener’s mind. Mayon, who’s cousin is famed music video director Hype Williams, utilized his time in the music industry trenches
Pop hasn’t changed in the last fifty years quite as much as some people might think it has – in all reality, it’s essentially the same structural concept that it was a half-century ago in more ways than one. Take Rob Alexander’s new single “This Hollywood Road;” while the track is sporting a sophisticated swing
A blistering beat tamed by a velvety vocal. Sleek lyrical daggers laced with a melodic integrity as strong as it is welcoming. A strutting drumbeat that doesn’t need a big ol’ bassline to get us grooving along to the rhythm of the music. This is Little Hurt’s new single and music video “Alaska,” and while
308 Ghost Train are trying to accomplish a lot with their music, but one thing they aren’t interested in – even slightly – is keeping up with the trends of a jaded mainstream rock sound. Their latest single, “Bleed Over Me,” ushers the band into 2020 with a balladic sound stylized around a vocal-powered hook
Chemistry is everything in a band, and this is especially true of rock n’ roll bands. If it’s not there, and more importantly, if it’s not real, the audience can tell – take The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus’ latest single, “Brace Yourself.” With over a billion online streams of their discography, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus are
In Adam Byrd’s debut single, “Knock Knockin,” the R&B singer/songwriter isn’t pulling out any props or fluff in hopes of dazzling us with the sort of frills that a lot of his rivals would just as soon rely on for such an endeavor. Instead, Byrd is delivering a harmony-based recording that fuses elements of a
Under the name Charlie Alpha Papa, Albuquerque’s Michael Capshaw, continues to ignite the poetic fires that fueled him in high school. Capshaw, who asks his fans to call him Cap, dominates the mood with the tropical delight “Bora Bora” out now via his own Capish Music Label. Whatever name he prefers, he should get used
We recently caught up with Ronnie Ferguson, one half of the Michigan father/son duo STREAKING IN TONGUES. Each day for the past two weeks the band has released a new song/video on Youtube for their latest, Live from Lockdown. The new album was captured in the duo’s living room with one microphone in early May. All
Rock’s greatest legends have typically found their fame working with the simplest of foundations – Delta blues, amplified guitars, heavy riffing, and a whole lot of percussive punishment. King Falcon seem to be interested in joining the club with the release of their debut single “Shake! Shake! Shake!” this season, and if you give it
Underneath the crushing guitars and rolling percussion, AV Super Sunshine’s new song “Baby, Goodbye” is a kiss to the sky. It’s a love letter to possibilities and the endless array of flashback sonic bliss, held together with pop nuances. Featuring the bottled optimism of lead singer AV Super Sunshine, with outstanding guest vocalist Ruby Amanfu
“Swarm” is the new track from Los Angeles’ Zero Theorem. Just as its name suggests, this anthemic song is deserving of all the buzz that it garners. The numbers add up – this song calculates societal defaults in a gloomy, but blunt rhythm progression. Anchored by droning guitars and lasting beats, “Swarm” simply rocks. URL:
Fellas, let me warn you, this chick is whack. That is typically the scuttlebutt that you might hear; instead rapper Amir Beats goes about in the more artistic way and puts his advice out via music. His song “Got ‘Em Throwin’ Dollars” has a knack for both putting this woman on a pedestal and keeping
Brendan Staunton proves with his album Last of the Light, contrary to conventional wisdom, you can sometimes go home again. The nine song release is Staunton’s first in three decades and marks a culmination of sorts in his life’s journey. There are, without question, further twists and hairpin curves lying ahead for Staunton, as there are
Inexplicably dominant, “Darkest Hour” from DawgGone Davis featuring Chago G Williams, triumphs over haters in this latest release from the Kansas City artist. DawgGone Davis, also known as Rebecca, constructs a multi-genre track.
