Kickin’ it with some brand new rock tunes
Of Gentlemen and Cowards – “Don’t Say”-I dig the up tempo style here. The guitar work is super clean, which allows the vocal to really soar on this track. Something about the full production (maybe it’s the tight harmonies on the chorus) makes …

Indie Rock to free your soul – wanna get lost in some rock n’ roll and drift away?
Stop Motion Poetry – “Missile”-This track has a wonderful blend of old and new influences. The lead vocal and deceptively complex melody pull the listener in right away. This is the kind of lyricism that we appreciate, equal parts clever and impactful. What’s …
Reimagining Rock in February 2019
St Buryan – “Giving In”-There’s a grittiness to the St Buryan sound that keeps me coming back for more. Where the vocals sometimes waver, the drum beat and driving guitars make up for. The overall sound is one that is dynamic and engaging. …
