Tom Tikka & The Missing Hubcaps took us along for the 2020 release Insane and now Tikka continues his brand of self-wallowing with openings of hope in the holiday-themed “Just Like Xmas (Love Is War)”. Riddled with forlorn longings, Tikka surprises the listener with a song that draws from Americana, early pop and even some

Canada’s Jeffrey Li brings more chills down your spine than the North Pole winds in the new holiday song, “Jesus Happy Birthday”. A beautiful piece, complete with Li’s mature voice laced with hope, this is the song that should be spinning nonstop on the Christmas station near you. A clean, spiritual message and a voice
In the competitive world of indie pop, Blake Langdale doesn’t have an easy road ahead of him in trying to put his name on the map, but this isn’t to say that his new single “Streets” doesn’t put forth quite the sterling effort.

Hi Avatari! Thanks for being here! Hey, it’s my pleasure! Who has been your greatest influence? I’ve gotta go with my parents. They raised me right. Always encouraged me to follow my dreams and my passions. Opened as many doors for me as a guy could hope for. Loved each other. And loved me. No parents
Grandly melodic and powered by poetic lyricisms that warm up on the song all on their own – even without the assistance of the firm but flexible rhythm of the percussion – there’s no need for debate; “Still Believe” is the best song Animal Sun have released since first hitting the scene just last year.
How would you classify your music? My music classification as an Artist is Tropical, r&b pop. So it definitely is a combination of sounds with some additions to the classifications in Tropical, r&b pop style of music. For example when I talk about R&B you can also include rap or hip hop music and
Like many of us, singer/songwriter Stacy Gabel is going a little stir crazy. So much so that she’s titled her new track “Stir Crazy”. This whimsical songstress, a gregarious voice that shines bright, Gabel is a breath of fresh air in an uncertain time. “Stir Crazy” blends treasured acoustic guitar arrangement with a rambunctious drum
“Cold Lake” is the fiery new single from Ishana. Swirling with seductive tones and viral beats, Ishana seduces the listener with her lavishly light voice. She’s a vision. Sounding like a siren in the night, Ishana offers an emotional, revealing sonic journey. Sometimes sounding like shimmering in the pale moonlight and other times cast within
Hi Violet! Thanks for being here today! Of course! Thanks for having me! Is there a song that you would like to cover? If so, what song? That is a tough one. I have so many that I would love to perform. “Better in Color” by Lizzo would be pretty dope. What could you give a
Piercing and riddled with an adrenaline normally reserved for the dancefloor exclusively, the beat in Cristal Carrington’s “Another Way of Life” is definitely one of the biggest reasons why I would tell you to check the track out this fall, but hardly the lone attribute that makes this song such an infectious club number. From

“More Than Meets The Eye” is the latest single from Missouri’s Bill Abernathy. Arriving at a turning point in history, “More Than Meets The Eye” presents itself as both a rock track and folk song. Abernathy’s penchant for writing hooks and questioning what is really going on behind-the-scenes and what is being spoon-fed are just
You don’t always have to load a song down with a lot of carnal electric riffing to produce a strong rock n’ roll vibe, and if this were ever true of one single specifically, “Everybody But Myself” by Californians Rad Horror definitely fits the bill. From the understated but physical manner in which they throw

In his new album as Impresario, appropriately titled All of Us, Valerian Ruminski reaches out to the masses via every inch of sonic space he can occupy through our stereo speakers this fall and portrays a brooding story told through both original and cover material, and from where I sit, it’s a masterful sequel to Songs from

Hi Nicki! Great to have you here today! Great to be here as well! What is the most meaningful song/album you have ever written? I’d have to go with my Heartbeat Album. It’s the album that I had always wanted to write and record when I dreamed about being a recording artist in my teens. I also
“If it ain’t broke, it can’t be fixed / It takes two oars to row / ‘Whitewash works as good as paint’ / Sayin’ don’t make it so” sings Russ Still beside the steady play of his band the Moonshiners in their new single “That Right There,” these words capturing the spirit of the blue-collar
In 2020, we’re arguably witnessing pop music’s most diverse era unfold before our very ears, and you really needn’t look much further than underground acts like up and comer Leni Black to know exactly what I’m talking about.

From the
