Don’t Let the Weather Fool You, These Powerful Tunes Are Anything But Cold
I’m cold. Like, temperature-wise. (Maybe personality, too. Depends on who you ask, I guess.) But these hard-hitting, inventive, awesome songs have the ability to warm you up, inside and out. So, go ahead. Cozy up the fire! Soul Push – “Calypso” I’ve just …
A new music mix without a single holiday track (PROMISE!)
Naipia – “Another”-I’m a sucker for power chords and quality vocals. This track rocks, with a solid beat and a relatable key lyric. Fans of mid-90s rock (which, if we’re honest, is all of us) will dig this band quite a bit. I …

Your Essential Thanksgiving Playlist
The Brilliance – “How Do We Know“ This one carries an almost spiritual pondering to it. The band asks existential questions throughout the criminally short track amidst drum machines and keys. “How Do We Know” serves as a foretaste of what we are …
Take a spoonful of everything – an eclectic new music mix
Kelz – “Passerby”-I could vibe out to this track all dang day. Ya heard? It’s got this understated synth work that sits right in the middle of the mix while the snare pops at the top. When the easy going vocal line slips …
Christmas Tracks to Ho Ho Ho To
For many, myself included, the time before December and after Halloween are filled with dread. No matter how good natured we attempt to be, the early push of Christmas music brings out the Grinch in us. Granted, there are not many good Thanksgiving …
