Daniel and the Lion – Death Head
Although most people probably don’t care how I “discovered” a band, I find the story with DATL to be particularly fun. They did a cover of Ray Charles “Hallelujah I Love Her So” that was so incredible I had to know more about …
Contest Winner: HANNAH FAIR Artist Interview
1) How did you get your start writing music? I found my grandfather’s guitar in his basement when I was about 13 and I became infatuated with that thing. He played a little, and had brought that guitar to Tanzania on a mission’s …

Moor Hound – Stifled Spirit
Simple, pretty, relatable tunes are what come from the Moor Hound release, Stifled Spirit. Steve Marino brings his sweet sounds from Bloomington, IN, and these sounds are hitting on exactly what the country/folk/Americana genres are producing; good, honest lyrics and palatable instrumentation combining …
Jacob Jones – Good Timin’ in Waynetown
Jacob Jones has a musical personality disorder that makes him a surprisingly awesome artist. His new album Good Timin’ in Waynetown has the remarkable ability to sound like four of five different subgenres of music. Most notably, Jones is an American musician with …
