I’ve been obsessed with this band since I heard “Negative Noise” in early April and have been itching for this release since I discovered them. (Late to the party, I know, but I’m here now and I’m a fan.) Since others may be new to the band like me, here’s the 411 on them: Hailing from the ATL (that’s Atlanta, GA) and now residing in … Continue reading Track by Track: Unstable by Tetrarch
Eric has been releasing tracks from both Heart and Soul throughout 2020 and 2021. He’s released “Heart on Fire“, “Stick that in Your Country Song”, and “Crazyland” in the months leading ups to Heart. He’s released “Break it Kind of Guy“, “Hell of a View”, “Bad Mother Trucker“, and “Lynyard Skynard Jones” for Soul. Each single an antithesis of the one before either in sound, emotion, or lyrics. They’ve been a … Continue reading Track by Track: Heart and Soul
Opening with a slick bass line and dreamy 80’s ethereal keys, the first single, “Do Not Disturb” from Ryan Adam’s upcoming 18th studio album, Big Colors (out on 11-June) is a seductress and enchantress musically and lyrically. A prolific writer, Ryan does not mind exposing the veins that carry the emotional pain or burdens within and externally. He has this brilliant capability to cut straight to the … Continue reading 🔥 Track: Do Not Disturb by Ryan Adams
Good God almighty, Mister Kip Moore released a banger of a tune on Friday. As spring rolls into summer in the States, it is the perfect tune for summer living and sun drenched memories and for me here in AUS where autumn is rolling into winter, it’s a perfect tune to remember that on the other side of the brisk chill lays sun kissed shoulders … Continue reading 🔥 Track: Good Life by Kip Moore

First, I owe AEORA and her team an apology because I am late to the game on this EP. Secondly, I hope to make it up to AEORA with this review. Because. WOW. I was introduced to AEORA via fellow Aussie LANKS when he tweeted about her music. Being a music nerd, I went and listened to “NEED YOU” and fell in love with the … Continue reading REVIEW: Let Loose by Aeora
Hailing from Melbourne (AUS) comes 21 year old ELIOTT, but don’t let her age fool you into thinking she’s young and naive. Her debut EP BOLD ENOUGHÂ is everything but those two words. Kicking off BOLD ENOUGH is the first track “FIGURE IT OUT”. Listening to the track, I can instantly see ELIOTT, head against the window of a moving train as rain starts to cascade … Continue reading REVIEW: Bold Enough by Eliott

I have always dug THE NEIGHBOURHOOD since they popped onto the music scene back in 2012 and their music has progressed with each release while being able to maintain a very distinct sound that is very much their own. That progression and distinction follows through with their 2018 (January 11) EP, TO IMAGINE. Each track on the 5 song EP varies from the one before. “Heaven” … Continue reading REVIEW: To Imagine by The Neighbourhood
Love or hate U2 and their music, they do something that people are always talking about and to find the longevity they have had and still have in the music world isn’t magic or luck, it’s the know how and the fearlessness in trying something new and sometimes sticking to something old. As a long time U2 fan, there are albums that are instant timeless classics … Continue reading REVIEW: Songs of Experience by U2
