Longtime adult music fans will likely distrust any artist/songwriter who self-consciously describes their craft as a calling. It isn’t about the foundation of said calling. It’s about the inevitable wont of such performers to turn dogmatic and forsake their essential duty of providing an entertaining, enjoyable listening experience for their audience. Coppe Cantrell, however, gives

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
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
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
Contrast can be your best friend or your worst enemy in a recording studio and beyond, and for artist and acclaimed pianist Elizabeth Sombart, it’s the former more than it is the latter. Sombart’s epic Singing the Nocturnes has her under consideration for a Grammy Award, and it’s no doubt thanks to the album’s stirring
Her new single “Sun’s Gonna Shine” only reinforces Dale Ann Bradley’s near-peerless reputation within the bluegrass community. She collaborates with fellow Kentuckian J.P. Pennington on this track from her new full-length album Kentucky for Me. Pennington’s pedigree as a member of country music supergroup Exile gives Bradley’s single a little added cachet, but the song ultimately
Iconic Designer Sue Wong will be honored at the Come Together on Lion’s Gate Female Empowerment Panel hosted by Awake Your Inner Body on Monday, August 8th, 2022.

“Open When” is the vibrant new single from SistersJ you didn’t know you needed this summer. SistersJ consists of real life sisters Elizabeth and Lily Jackson. Music runs through Elizabeth and Lily’s veins, Elizabeth received her degree in music education with honors and Lily is a salutatorian who placed third in the nation with her
Talent is overrated. It is necessary, yes, in some form – even if it is a formula, you have to be able to execute at an acceptable level for your audience. Such a performance, in any field, demands skill. However, when we place such primacy on talent, we are only telling half of the story.
Hi Caroline McQuaig! Great to speak with you today! You as well! Thank you so much for having me. You are getting ready to release new music! Will you tell us about the song? Yes! Main Character is a single all about empowerment and harnessing the “main character energy” we all have waiting to break through. It was
When did you first know you wanted to become a musical artist? What was the first song you ever wrote? I was always a very musical and creative kid, but it really hit when I was 12 and started to write my own songs. The first one that wasn’t just a rip off of something
When did you first know you wanted to become a musical artist? What was the first song you ever wrote? Music always played a huge role in my life and was something I truly enjoyed, but I realized that I wanted to fully pursue it when my producer, Mark Vogel, asked me to work with
In the vein of “Zoot Suit Riot” and “Friend Like Me” (Disney’s Aladdin), and the American jazz and ska genres, children’s music singer and songwriter Marla Lewis comes up aces with the Halloween-themed “The Boogey Woogey Man”. It’s not necessarily a Halloween song, though, if you jive to the beat and are hip to the dizzying
Fashion Influencers and activism are seldom paired together, that was until Simonetta Lein came to the scene. A passionate activist by heart who believes in her dreams, she wanted to bring forward the real issues through the fashion industry for their far and wide reach across the globe. Coming to present times, she is one
It is true that shooting stars, while impressive to behold, burn themselves out. They dazzle us for a time and leave behind glittering but slender evidence of their presence. I am a fan, as we all are, of such phenomena, but ultimately prefer artists with staying power. The actors, actresses, bands, and singers, et al,
Pittsburgh born and Orlando, Florida based writer Mary Kay LaBrie is blazing her own path throughout the modern entertainment world. She’s taken her twenty-two years of experience in leadership and staff development and channeled its lessons into screenwriting, food blogging, and television scripts. FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/mklscreenwriter/ LaBrie, in some ways, seems like she’s trying to make
“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
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
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
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
A jaunt of a song. A steady beat fueled with heart and soul – the new track, “Do You Think That I’m A Fool” from singer/songwriter Caroline swells with desire and catchy vibes. For anyone that has been misjudged, pigeonholed, overlooked or even mistreated, “Do You Think That I’m A Fool” exudes sweet redemption. A
There are really only two ways of working a retro element into your sound these days if you’re in pop music; either describing your old guard influences with imagistic lyricism or embodying the energy of a classic era through the tone of your performance. I wasn’t quite sure which group Chesca belonged in before listening
As much as a beat can convey on its own, big rhythm tends to respond even more to a powerhouse vocal than it does something on the softer side, and it’s hard to argue with that in the new single “Down Crazy” by Gigi Vega. Stylistically resembling hip-hop’s poppier side whilst borrowing melodic frills from
Just listening to Brooke Josephson’s singing can introduce you to the angelic qualities she has as an artist, but in the video for her new single “Rainbow,” these qualities are realized visually in a way that only complements the emotion in the song. While not quite as elaborate a document as the composition is on
Hi Viviane! Great to talk to you! You are from Brazil right?! Where all have you taught since you became a teacher? Yes, I am Brazilian, born and raised. I have taught in Portugal, Brazil, and the United States. What are some of the differences you have noticed in teaching in different countries? I have noticed
If you’re as gifted a singer as Enjolee is, all you really need to win over the audience is the sort of bright, bubbly vocal performance she submits in her debut single “Forever Man.” Although structurally on the simple side of the spectrum, “Forever Man” doesn’t feel like a track that underutilizes the capabilities of
“Trouble,” a new single from 18-year-old singer/songwriter Ashley Suppa, starts slow, but then quickly bursts open with an almost 80’s dance sound. Suppa’s voice is the star of the show, absolutely stunning. She has incredible range and sounds like she has been doing this all her life. And in a way she has. Suppa’s first
