With a week to go, Last Giant, has released a new song from their forthcoming album Monuments (June 9th). On the song, RFK Heise says, ‘Animals’ is probably the most differing track on the album. It’s not out of place, it just has its own vibe and cosmos that fits within the whole of the album. I feel like it was inspired after seeing The … Continue reading LISTEN: “Animals” by Last Giant
On the heels of “Rhedeg Yn Y Nos”, Ci Gofod is back with another dance floor anthem. If Ci Gofod’s mission is to fill dance floors, he’s going easily achieve that with “Ysbrydoliaeth”. “Ysbrydoliaeth” translates to ‘inspiration’ and the song screams, summer disco vibes.“Ysbrydoliaeth” is full of groove, funky bass, tempting guitars and a beat you can bop your head. Ci’s vocals are 80’s Bowie-esque, low … Continue reading LISTEN: “Ysbrydoliaeth” by Ci Gofod

Whew boy, Ren has done it again. I’d like that to be my official “review” but that’s an injustice to the hard work Ren has put into his music. With his latest track, “Animal Flow”, Ren once again wrote it, performed the music, and produced it before passing it over to Frederik Moller for mixing and mastering, who also mixed and mastered “Sick Boi” and … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Animal Flow” by Ren

As a word lover, I get rather impressed when artists can weave fanciful words into their song and the soulful Donovan Keith has done just that with his song “Heartbreak Soliloquy”. Be honest, how often have you heard the word soliloquy in a song or even used it in real life? With that one word, I was already impressed with “Heartbreak Soliloquy” and I hadn’t … Continue reading LISTEN: “Heartbreak Soliloquy” by Donovan Keith
There was nothing better than riding down the dirt roads of the South with your feet out the window and Vancouver’s Geoff Gibbons has captured that carefree moment with his latest song aptly called “Feet Out the Window”. With the song, Geoff has captured that light and easy 70’s sound and blended it with a little bit of country, Americana, and early Jimmy Buffett. Geoff … Continue reading LISTEN: “Feed Out the Window” by Geoff Gibbons
I know I am a month late on this review. Sometimes, I just want to listen to music with no intention of ever sharing my thoughts on it, but the more I listened to “Dreams of the Working Class” by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals, the more I kept thinking about all the wonderful things I felt while listening to the song. When Ryan is … Continue reading REVIEW: “Dreams of the Working Class” by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals
I felt that Brothers Osborne’s 2022’s album, Skeletons, was a significant shift in attitude and confidence for the band. The album was solid from beginning to end and heavy on groove and that attitude and confidence can be heard and felt even more with their latest 3 songs that were released on Good Friday. The 3 songs are from an upcoming to be named album … Continue reading TRACK x TRACK REVIEW: Nobody’s Nobody by Brothers Osborne
The title track of Ritual Cloak’s forthcoming EP, “Vanished in Transition” formed one question in my mind…where was this song when I needed it for the April Pink Moon (Northern Hemisphere)?! This would have been an absolutely wonderful song to sit and meditate with on an event like that. (The moon wasn’t actually pink, that’s what April’s full moon is called.) Daniel Barnett, one half … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Vanished in Transition” by Ritual Cloak
Lord have mercy on my soul. There’s new Natalie Merchant. I have to thank our timeline on Spoutible, the sane, calm, and less hate filled answer to Twitter, for putting “Tower of Babel” on my radar. Because it’s goddamn brilliant. “Tower of Babel” is from Natalie’s forthcoming album, Keep Your Courage, which will be out on April 14th. Let’s talk about music first. The cowbell … Continue reading LISTEN: “Tower of Babel” by Natalie Merchant
Picture this scene – a setting sun painting shades of yellow, pink, and orange across the sky while your tribe, your pack are all smiling, dancing, and having a wonderful time as the day comes to an end with not a care or worry in the world.
