There’s something remarkably disarming about the soft voice that Chris Zurich puts into his new single “You’re My Crutch,” but it’s not as conventional as the pop genre he performs often produces. Although it would be a challenge to describe this song as being experimental and mean it, there’s undeniably an artist pushing himself to
Your music is really thoughtful. How long do you contemplate what the subject matter will be? Thank you so much! It really depends on what I’m thinking the mood of the song should be and the subject matter. If it’s meant to be a fun upbeat or mid-tempo song I try to keep the lyrics light
Mindfulness & Mysticism: Connecting Present Moment Awareness with Higher States of Consciousness isn’t Ora Nadrich’s first book. Her fourth book follows on the heels of critically acclaimed texts such as Live True: A Mindfulness Guide to Authenticity, a work BookAuthority lists among the 100 Best Mindfulness Books of All Time. The founder and President of the Institute
Martin Brooks’ new project (via a box or cards) is titled Body Language Decoder. The title has a nice ring to it. Sort of like a retro, eighties throwback – think The Terminator, The Running Man, or Total Recall – which along with the retro illustrative techniques (Brooks calls them ‘flashcards’) drives the point home
AV Super Sunshine’s new single “Frankenstein” doesn’t mention Lady Gaga, but it’s an affectionate tribute to one of AV’s biggest influences. The artists long ago connected via social media where they shared music and commiserated by the vagaries of the music industry. Gaga’s music and relationship with her fans exerts a strong hold over AV
“A cappella Holiday Classics” is the latest release from acclaimed musical group “The Accidentals” headed up by Margaret Dorn. The group has certainly been busy no doubt with a string of releases of their near 30 years of activity, ranging from Beatles covers to even a previous Christmas compilation in the form of “An Accidental
Live music is changing in a million different ways right now, and I’m not talking about the effect of COVID-19 on concertgoers alone. There’s a lot about the old guard in popular music and promotions that just doesn’t make any sense anymore – from the politics of regional scenes to the constant competing for air
For indie actor, Linda Collins the roadmap to success started in St. Louis, with stops in Tuscaloosa, Canada and eventually her new base, New York City. Sprinkled in between are a few stints in graduate school and even some time with the Naples Symphony. The actress, musician and producer continues to inspire audiences with her
Soul/R&B Singer, Rina Chanel’s newest single, the alliterative, “Sweetest Of Melody,” is from her upcoming EP, Rina. The song is a duet, featuring Senghor Robinson, that has a light R&B flavor, with a sort of 90’s feel. Chanel, who was a voice major, once attending college on a scholarship, is spotlighted in such a way
The study of any element of popular music always starts with the basics, and I don’t mean learning scales and the difference between a quarter note and a half note. Just understanding the intimacy with which a player develops their relationship with an instrument is fundamental to knowing what modern pop is made of, and
Whether fragile in the intimate “Insanity Was Throwing a Party” or more jovial in the swinging “Dear Facebook,” Neal Fox’s voice is always a focal point in his new album Unhinged, and it doesn’t take much more than a single sit down with this LP’s tracklist to understand what I’m talking about. Rather than trying
The opening for Lorenzo Gabanizza’s single “You’re Not There” is a little misleading. A brief swell of synthesizers, however, soon gives way to a smooth mid-tempo pace carried by drumming and guitar. The former lays down an authoritative and recognizable groove while the latter unwinds compelling melodic lines over the top. Few will mind that
You guys are really unique! Where does that come from? Edem: Living life and being lucky. As artists and musicians, we channel all our conscious and subconscious thoughts, emotions, and acumen into our art. It’s what we do. It’s natural and necessary for us. We serve. Brett: I’m glad to hear you think we’re unique. Life would
India is a country that has experienced something of a restorative and revitalized period in recent years. The region continues to see growth in a variety of ways. In Kiara Chettri, we may have found one of India’s best kept secrets, until now. With an Ariana Grande/Christina Aguilera like vocal range, Kiara Chettri is only
You don’t need oversized basslines to give a muscle-bound melody a little extra kick, but that doesn’t mean you can’t exploit them for everything they’re worth much as ALYST and Affluent Oscar Sanchez do in their new single together, “Gleeming.” Although I’ve been going for more stripped-down low-end mixes in the last year, mostly due
How would you classify your overall style of music on your “Devotion” CD? Upbeat Devotional World Dance Pop. A mouthful, I know. But I’ve actually created a new genre here which doesn’t fit into the current pigeon holes. I’m waiting for the music industry to catch up with me! 🙂 Who would you say influenced
Marla Lewis is anything but predictable. The idea that someone with an established reputation as a performer of children’s material would take an one hundred eighty degree turn into smooth jazz would likely produce an incredulous reaction from any sane listener. Lewis, nonetheless, proves she is a bit of a stylistic chameleon with the ability
Rob Alexander is an experienced medical profession by trade but listening to his third solo album Dream Out Loud and its latest single “Olivia” makes a strong case that his life is off-course. We must assume the Florida native is only a part-time singer/songwriter at this point, so let us hope he makes so much money that
1st Klase, AKA Klase Gonzales, released his sophomore album “Trapikal Gawd II” on September 17th. 1st Klase is a renowned Caribbean producer and songwriter, based in Trinidad and Tobago. The album explores different aspects of storytelling and sheds light on the lives of youth living in the Caribbean ghettos. It’s full of infectious Hip Hop
Rob Jankowski’s highly anticipated new film “Attached: Paranormal” is being released in over 60 countries OnDemand via Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, Microsoft, The Dish Network and Google Play on October 26th, 2021. Rob Jankowski is a triple threat in this Paranormal/Horror Thriller, as writer, director and star of this new entry in the genre. Jankowski’s
Hi Gotaflika, thanks for chatting today. Let’s start with a tough question, what is your favorite song that you’ve made to date? All my songs are my favorite but I can say to you that the most favorite one has not been written yet. What has been the highlight of your music career so far?
For Tarah Who?, volume isn’t so much a means to an end but an all-out priority, and in their new single “Supposedly a Man,” they prove that they can be loud and proud – but no sloppy about it. Too often in the past year have I come across a new heavy rock act that
A cresting drumbeat and soft but searing vocals are ready to come undone shortly after pressing play on the new single “Overwhelming” from rock artist Riku, but while the chemistry they have in this intro to the song is quite stirring, I would be lying if I said it eclipsed that of the lyrical and
Wendy Stuart and Steven Bloomer-Teague will be hosting TriVersity Talk this Thursday at 7 PM ET with featured guest Michael Iannucci. TriVersity Talk! is a weekly web series with featured guests discussing their lives, activism and pressing issues in the LGBTQ Community. With TriVersity Talk!, the goal is to laugh and learn.

Hi Jared, we appreciate you taking the time to chat with us today. Tell us about your journey in music so far. It’s my pleasure! Thanks so much for having me. My music journey has been circuitous at best. Geographically, I grew up on the prairies of central South Dakota and subsisted on a steady
“WTF? Where’s the Fun?” is the latest single from songwriter/vocalist Vineet, a performative polymath of a kind who’s never heard a musical genre he doesn’t like. We haven’t heard a heavy metal track from Vineet yet though and probably never will. His funk driven new single never sounds like an uncomfortable stab into foreign territory,
Music like this is medicine right now. The world thinks it begin coming up for air after drowning for over a year only to be swept away, at least in part, by unseen waves. There’s no doubt countless families and individuals are reeling from unthinkable losses. A song entitled “Happiness” for some, may sound like
Arkansas’ Pamela Hopkins has taken the path less traveled to this place in her life. She released her first album of original songs in 1995, a figurative lifetime ago, and didn’t follow it up for twenty-three years. Hopkins, in the interval, prospered pursuing careers in education and law enforcement. However, the clarion call of music,
Monsieur Job is one of the biggest names in the Colombian music community right now, and if you’re even a moderate fan of the work they’ve submitted to date, the new album W.T.F.! is something you need to get your hands on a lot sooner than later. It almost feels inaccurate to call W.T.F.! an LP when, in reality,
