After perusing YouTube for viable up and coming musicians, I’ve been consistently stunned by the quality of young George Ogilvie. While I don’t know much about his career, this original “Far Away” shows that he’s got incredible talent with seemingly limitless potential. Enjoy …

Drew Holcomb and The Neighbors – Good Light
Drew Holcomb and The Neighbors have been floating at the edge of our collective music consciousness for a while now. We first heard about them in the middle of last year, heard them on The Music Bed’s Christmas compilation, and then heard that, …
Artist Interview: Tim the Lion Tamer (with reader participation!)
This is a re-run of an interview we did a while ago. We’ve decided to run it again with a new feature. We’re doing a FOLLOW UP INTERVIEW with Tim in the coming days. So ask questions in the comments and we’ll pick …
Cadbury Sisters – Barefoot EP

David Ramirez – Fire of Time
One of our favorites Matthew Mayfield told us that he was a huge David Ramirez fan. Regrettably we never took the time to feature him until now. He’s a remarkable songwriter… and not a bad performer to boot. We’re hoping to put up …
Nathan K – Dishes
Nathan K has a subdued yet strangely invigorating sound. In the most insulting sense, he’s “just another singer songwriter,” but in a real sense he brings something unique to the game in his song crafting. The songs have layers beyond the stripped-down typical …
