Maggie Szabo knows what she’s doing. Her new single “My Oh My” bursts with exciting pop energy, carried by her strong sultry voice that glides easily over the music. She has the kind of voice that makes you think “how has she not blown up yet?!” Her music is more than radio-worthy, and “My Oh
It was initially perplexing as to why AV Super Sunshine’s latest single ” A Wedding Song” in the press kit had a flying saucer hovering over a couple at the end of an aisle. On the Spotify release, it’s a more conventional and subtly thoughtful image of cake toppers standing aside one another. That majestic
What’s your newest project that you’re soon releasing? ALLY CAT MAN! I am working on it this coming May and hopefully will be out in June! How are you keeping up with your fans? Mostly on Tiktok, YouTube, Insta, and FB! What does a typical day look like for you? I work from home and
We are chatting with music producer Mark Vogel today, welcome! Tell us a little about yourself and how you got into music production. Are you a singer yourself? Yes! I sang on TV as a teenager, and went to a university on a Voice Scholarship. In Jesse and the Rippers on FULL HOUSE, I played in the
What is the most proud piece of work you’ve put out so far in your career? Definitely “Fly Around”. The album that took me seven years to finish, with the help of a literal all-star team. I could not have made this art without the dream team (Don Bolles, Juliette Amoroso, Ariel Pink, Mom and
What inspired your latest single? ‘Here Comes The Light’ is a song about being born – and getting reborn – inspired by the (soon to happen) birth of my daughter. And the video’s release coincides with Women’s History Month! The lyrics are well-wishes to her for a safe journey into this world while simultaneously a
(POULSBO, WA.) “MERMAID – A DREAM MADE REAL” is a 150 page picture book featuring professional Mermaid Aura Stiers “The Swashbuckling Mermaid” based out of Poulsbo, WA. THE SWASHBUCKLING MERMAID: Mermaid Aura is also nicknamed The Swashbuckling Mermaid as she is a SCA Rapier fighter who enjoys a good melee every now and then.
What are you doing today to make sure you’re staying your best self? I wake up early to do my yoga session at home. I take time to appreciate my body and the hard work it does. I used to feel silly about doing this and now I understand how important it is to show yourself
Springfield, Mass’s, Vianchi, has released a new single. The strikingly titled, “Overdose,” isn’t literal, but rather the singer’s attempt to control his addiction for a love interest. Vianchi is probably best defined as an R&B artist, with ever so slight undertones of soul and Motown. His impressive falsetto is his trademark, and along with his
One of the most exciting and rewarding things about reviewing indie artists and devouring new music is the opportunity to be ‘in on’ the beginning. In the case of rapper/hip hop artist DICI, having the chance to be one of the first to listen to his debut EP, a five-song thrill, is like opening your
There’s an air of welcome familiarity to Dallas String Quartet cover of Dua Lipa’s hit “Love Again.” Besides the fact that it’s a cover of a song I wasn’t too aware of even though most of the tracks I heard from Dua’s 2020 release Future Nostalgia were very good, the arrangement and the sincere joy
Hi Sophia! Thanks for being here! Thank you for having me! How do you normally start your day? I hate to admit it but usually, the first thing I do is check my phone. If you could swap lives with one person for a day who would it be? I think it would be very fun to swap
The steady unfurling of a harmony is likely to hypnotize just about anyone who really loves music, but for those of us with an especially deep appreciation for the medium, something like the new single “Are You Lonesome Tonight” by Des Cox is a particularly stellar find. Though created with a bit of jest with
An eloquent woman wears her clothes they do not wear her. Rapper and lifestyle mogul Rich Nana models Versace, Prada, Chanel, and Givenchy, in her adventurous videos paved with exotic poolside scenes and far away visions that one merely dreams about. Diana Foster known better by her stage name Rich Nana is a phenomena. At
Thank you for chatting with us today! 2021 is finally here – what do you hope this year has in store for you? Jahleel: “A lot of fun and a lot of auditions” Are you feeling motivated in this new year? If so, what are you doing to keep that up? Egypt: “ well I’m
Cutting through the tension created by Rob Alexander’s well-woven lyrical structure in “Nothing to Be Afraid of Now,” we discover the sizzle of an electric guitar lead as powerful and searing as they come. There’s already something seriously contagious about the beat in the background, but topped with this bit of sonic ribbonry, the track
The beauty of Ishana’s new single, “Steady Eyes” is the ethereal garden of evocation that it cultivates. There’s not an over reliance on sizzle or hyperbolic gimmicks. It’s a mostly straightforward piece, with a few clever effects, that allow the delightfully waifish Ishana, to shine. Most wouldn’t consider music of this genre, to be immediate,
Andre Mayon has released a visual component to his outstanding single “Love At First Sight”. The soft-spoken crooner with a deep delivery, turns the listener onto his suave demeanor, dressed-down guitar and shows off both natural sceneries and an attractive female video lead. It doesn’t take long in “Love At First Sight” for the viewer
Rising artist HEwas recently dropped his new single ‘WHOLEthing’ on his Spotify page, featuring a musical collaboration with industry veteran Afroman, known his definitive, 2002 Grammy award-nominated album Because I Got Here. The result is something from a stylistic and technical level that has the free-flowing, untamed nature of a musician reveling in his youth
Music brings us together like nothing else can, and I think this was something on the mind of Francine Honey when she was sitting down to pen “Can’t Press Reset.” A powerful track that comes to us from the insularity of a mandatory quarantine, “Can’t Press Reset” doesn’t try to get political with its message
Christmas is a time for surprises, a time to witness the awe and wonder of every day people. It’s also a time to ponder and take emotional stock. And, in many cases, it’s just a chance to let loose and have some fun. I think all of wraps itself nicely together in a bow in
Hi Elektra! Thanks for being here! Who is your greatest influence? My greatest influence is the world. It’s not one singular person, but the collective greatness of humans. If you could teach one subject in school what would it be? Film and understanding the moving image. What is an important life lesson for someone to learn?
Recording artist and heart-throb Ian Guerin has just released his long awaited single and video entitled “Chapter ll” to worldwide critical acclaim. It depicts a recent time in his life when he hopes for a second chance at romance with a girl he was in love with, only it didn’t work out….again. Hoping to convince the
I take a walk on easy street, and get my thrills on easy street, I go back home on easy street, yeah I get high on easy street, sings the magnetic Marc Miner. The song is “Easy Street” and the album is Smile While You’re Wasted. This Austrian ‘outlaw country’ singer-songwriter doesn’t fit the same
An ode to moving the body and watching that body move, Baltimore newcomer Cristal Carrington sparkles onto the scene with her new hit “See You Dance”. If you aren’t moving and grooving with her by the first few seconds, well, there is not a song in the world that will get your hips moving. This
Welcome Beth! Thank you for chatting with us today! I just love your style! Who would you say is your style icon? I don’t really have one style icon, but if I had to choose it would be Coco Chanel. She was so stylish and ahead of her time that her look is still trending.
Industry without inspiration never leaves a lasting impact. Hard work and discipline often produce a reliable product but, without the spark of love behind its creation, posterity will take a dim view of its ultimate worth. Ten years ago, worldwide charting singer/songwriter, musician, and producer Stephen Wrench launched Musik and Film, LLC, henceforth referred to
Former vocalist for Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famers Chicago and a noteworthy solo artist in his own right, bassist and singer Jeff Coffey’s latest release can be dubbed a “back to my roots” type of effort. Origins is a sprawling fourteen track release still sustaining its commercial momentum since its December 2019 release and provides a
Overcoming pressure and rising to the occasion seems to be in Manny Cabo’s DNA. Audiences around the globe might only know him as a rocker, but his sensitive nature and balladeer role isn’t a fluke. The guy can sing. Cabo’s new single “All Night Again” has the former contestant on The Voice using his pipes
