Embracing conventionality in any manner is essentially taking the easy way out in any genre these days, but few prove this notion true quite as emphatically as Elektragaaz does in The Synaesthetic Picture Show: Part 6. Comprised of noisy bastions of electronica and progressive songcraft in “Death and the Gunfighter,” “The Forge of the Red Horseman,”

North Carolina native, Avery Roberson, realized his love of music and acquired his talent for entertainment from his father and grandfather. Music was all around Avery growing up, and Dad, Tony, played in a country music band called the Hutchins Brothers. They had a Top 100 hit in the late 80s. As a result, Avery
To conjure the same sounds and feelings as someone like Roy Orbison, that’s a heavy weight to bear — six decades after his meteoric rise to fame, nobody has been able to fully capture the same exact vocal stylings Orbison could, with singles such as “Pretty Woman” and “In Dreams.” The niche was impressive, and
Missouri power trio Dark Below are continuing their Breakout year with new single ‘Hate Being Human’.

The critically lauded and increasingly popular Swedish country singer/songwriter miQa.el’s new single “Walking Medicine” isn’t just something new.

There’s a runway feel to the chorus of Bobby And The Crew’s latest single, “Prince Of Charm.” It’s the type of lick that gives away the band’s European heritage. 3 guys and a gal, Bobby And The Crew are ironically or fittingly, as charming as they come. On “Prince Of Charm,” they’re singing about the
The Century Family Records. Alt.Pop artist Little Hurt is heading out on a co-headlining tour with Hembree to support his new single ‘Buttercup’ .

You won’t find any of the inauthentic props that have become commonplace in pop music in David Raybuck’s new song “The Pathway.” You also won’t find any false foundations, like synthetic harmonies or a badly recycled rhythm, in the song’s parent album, The Prodigal.

PTtheGospelSpitter is, arguably, one of the more unusual monikers I have come across listening to music in recent years, especially for a performer so steeped in R&B and gospel traditions. It is ultimately just a name, however. The performer behind that handle, Ashante P.T. Stokes, earned the right to call himself whatever he liked long

Crafting a song that can accurately capture itself as a sign of the times while simultaneously working as an outreached hand offering solace and aid in a trying time is tough. Few tracks manage to pull off the balancing act. It’s not easy coming to fans with a kind voice without coming across as an
From the corners of city streets to some other stretch of pavement in the world around us, there isn’t a moment in the lyric video for Iva Toric’s “Trust Fall” in which the young performer does not own every inch of space around her.
