Columbia, Missouri’s Dark Below is a band on the rise, storming out of America’s Midwest. Since forming in 2016, guitarist and vocalist Joshua Campbell, bassist and backing vocalist Josh Grove, and drummer Quin Koldan have teamed with famed producer Malcolm Springer and JPS Production’s Jason Schrick to make their groove heavy, hard rock sound.

We are chatting today with Heather Thomas. You have a great story of how you launched into music. Can you share with us more about your story? I started playing the drums in 5th grade band, fell in love with the instrument and playing music, and have never stopped! I had great teachers along the
Enormous melodies dressed as fleeting staples of the Americana aesthetic confront us with formidable strength in “Sourwood Ridge.” The pressure gets turned down while the tempo gets twisted in “The Little Rosewood Casket.” Gary Brewer gets his ducks in a row in “Tom Rock Twist” with just as much passion as he showcases in the
Teyquil is a talented and unique artist that we are so excited to talk further with. Big welcome! We are so excited to hear your new music. It is a little different from other songs you have out -tell us all about it! Hello, thanks for having me back. Yes, this single is a bit different from
We are happy to spend some time today with the talented Nashville based producer Kara Greskovic. Thank you for taking time to talk with us. Can you tell us a little about your story, where you started and where you are now? Of course, thanks for having me! I’m originally from Scranton, PA (where the
Step into room, and you will see Henri Cainglet’s work. The Filipino native has an undeniable, visual aesthetic that inspires both delightful bewilderment, and a sense of all-encompassing, wild-eyed immersion. There’s something refreshingly modern about his style, whilst simultaneously displaying a kind of timelessness. Mr. Cainglet’s mixture of his cultural roots with elements of key
Swaying with a weighty harmony as bulky as it is attractive, we find the gorgeous trappings of a throwback slow jam in “Storage,” one of the eight brand new, single-worthy songs comprising the new album +11 Hours by Conor Maynard. Maynard is bringing the melodic thunder like few others in the indie scene are this season, and
Now and again, someone with a brave voice comes around to say the things that need to be said the most without even batting an eye, and for fans of mild-mannered pop/rock, Rob Alexander could be that someone in 2023. His new single, “Get Over Yourself,” takes a somewhat basic bassline, shy synth melodies, and
I’m quite taken with Jaye Madison’s MIRЯOR: Vision and believe you will be as well. Jordan and Madison Skinner began singing together and apart in childhood, as most acts of this ilk do, and developed their vocal talents at an exponential pace. Their eventual move from Texas to Nashville accelerated their development and their debut MIRЯOR: Framework announced their
Colin Dieden proved himself during his tenure as The Mowgli’s frontman. The Calabasas, California-based band enjoyed a long run as one of the best indie acts on the scene. Dieden decided to go in a more pop direction and stepped out on his own in 2019 to launch a solo career under the name Little
Everett De Morier is a man you’ll soon realize it’s a privilege to meet. Everett De Morier, The Six Percent, and Being Part of a Select Few Everett De Morier is a man you’ll soon realize it’s a privilege to meet. Sure, he’s the bonafide author of four books, eight produced stage plays, an expose
Vineet Singh Hukmani is venturing into territory no other musician has dared. His new project is a full-fledged multiverse consisting of music, an accompanying comic book, and a 3D animated film. Run Storm & the Hope Star delivers the story of his character, an alter-ego named Run Storm, and the first music single from the multiverse project “Run!
With a piercing tonality that verges on retro in style a couple of times, the sterling but simple fretwork Benevolent & Divine intends on dishing out in their new single “Hyacinth” is nothing short of a magnetizing treasure for this track. Although all good rock n’ roll indeed relies on a certain level of melodic
Backed by a rambunctious rhythm that isn’t preceded by a big theatrical intro, the opening bars of “Fare Thee Well” by the charismatic Lindley Creek make it clear that fanciful frills of the conventional variety are not to be found in this new single from the acclaimed country crossover outfit. Contrarily, this is a roots
Two people can connect in incredible ways through the majesty of melodicism, and perhaps spring is the best time for a smart duet to debut, as it matches the tone of the season better than most any other kind of song in pop music can. Bruce Sudano is crooning alongside a worthy collaborator in Valerie
Lusty and alluding to an unspoken yet clubbish energy that could turn the temperature up in just about any room it’s played in, the groove beneath the lyrics in the new single “19” from up-and-coming pop singer/songwriter Taylor Jules is certainly one of the main reasons to give the track a listen this spring –
Though they don’t play as big a part here as they have in other iconic rock songs, the guitars that lace King Falcon’s “Cadillac” with sizzle are undeniably just as integral to the single’s chills factor as any of the other elements in the music are. If you haven’t already heard their work but like
To say music compromises a crucial part of Nathan Stanley’s DNA is an understatement. The grandson of bluegrass giant Dr. Ralph Stanley, one part of the famed Stanley Brothers and renowned for his performances with The Clinch Mountain Boys, comes by his voice honestly. He’s refined his work over the course of ten albums and
Indulgent but made valuable through more than its melodic charms alone, Shiloh June’s singing is reason enough for you to check out the new single “Down” this spring, but if you think it’s the only noteworthy element comprising the latest official release from this deeply talented pop balladist, you’re in for quite the surprise. Building
Like an unhinged steel door left to swing like a pendulum, the potent decadence of “The Shelter of Thieves” can be powerful enough to break through even the strongest of emotional barriers. “The Shelter of Thieves” isn’t the only song on Ann Brita Nilsson’s new solo offering Eleven Something that utilizes a poetic grind to entrance anyone
“If you feel that you have begun, or are in the midst of a spiritual awakening, you should consider yourself lucky,” writes Ora Nadrich in her new book, titled Time to Awaken: Changing the World with Conscious Awareness. “Not everyone gets a chance to emerge from what I call a ‘sleepwalker trance’, and find themselves
No matter how loyal you are to the old Nashville, there’s no denying it – hybridity is becoming absurdly common in country music these days, if not a new standard in the genre’s alternative faction, but there are still a handful of singer/songwriters around ready to answer prayers for old school purities. One of them
Luna Grey scores big with her new single “Gumball”. It follows on the heels of a recent spate of releases for this young performer while solidifying her claim as one of the best new performers working in indie-pop today. She isn’t due to be consigned to indie pop status for long, however, as “Gumball” shows
Tommy Howell is putting everything on the line in the song “Hell of a Life,” one of eleven found on his new record American Storyteller this winter, but the brooding tonal presence of his voice is not isolated to this one excerpt from the tracklist. From the nature of the verses to his throaty delivery, there’s no
Extended plays are too often wrought with unfocused passion and a lingering hesitant execution that is common among players in a transitional state of creativity, but this isn’t true of DEVORA’s God is Dead. Consisting of four simple but thoroughly engaging compositions, God is Dead is an EP feels more like a miniature album than it is a
“Bambara’s Symmetries”, the first track on Louis Siciliano’s latest release entitled Ancient Cosmic Truth, wastes little time making an impression on listeners. Siciliano’s fiery and inspired musical instincts find fertile ground in this up-tempo setting and the musicians complementing his vision are sympathetic to his creative direction. It results in one of the more stellar
For every Stevie Wonder or Funkadelic impersonation you’ll hear on the radio today, or in the last four decades, you’re bound to have at least one or two good ones, right? In recent years, audiences have been given slim pickings when it comes to modern funk music, but popular artists such as Childish Gambino (see:
Remember the 2003 trailer for the upcoming Bryan Singer film X-Men 2: United? Now it’s the time for those who are different, to stand together? That kind of messaging rings loud and clear with the agency A-DOT Media, founded and run by artists and entrepreneurs Damir A. Romano and Mark A. Wagner. Romano and Wagner may not be
In her new single, titled “Are You Clapping?,” pop songstress Taydem Shoesmith expands on the melodic framework outlined in the millennial singer/songwriter movement with smashing results, delivering a soft rhythm-powered number that makes use of her vocal skillset wonderfully. “Are You Clapping?” pushes boundaries on several levels, starting with its blend of tones found in
It’s been said that actors are like sharks – always on the hunt for that next role, that next juicy opportunity. The hard work and hustle, if you will, seems to be embedded in actor (and sometimes producer) Linda Collins. She not only caught the acting bug, but her symphony background bolsters an already magnetic
