      Nabiiou$ - TTG [Review]

      Rating: 4 out of 5

      “Loyalty is a tough thing to find in this world. This single honors loyalty, by dropping a steady beat and sing-song flow that serves as an anthem of trust and confidence. Both hard-earned by surviving tough times with, and because, of those you proudly stand alongside.”

          Rating: 3.5 out of 5

          “In a world where much music is produced and created at a computer as often as not, you sometimes crave an old school band to actually play for you. The Crooked Kings play music.

          True Rock and Roll isn’t dead so don’t let your playlists get lost in the land of ‘Smoke & Mirrors” music production and instead give this old world approach a listen. ”

            Jon Martin and Lovers - Young Hearts [Review]

            September 20, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Rock, Alternative

            Rating: 4 out of 5

            “It is hard to believe this is the debut single from Jon Martin and Lovers, because ‘Young Hearts’ already has that big epic band sound. I hear Wilco, and Drive By Truckers, and a dash of Old 97s to this one and I can’t wait to hear where the band goes from here with their blend of Americana/Alternative/Indie Rock sound.”

              “A glorious pop anthem for the dysfunctional relationship. Modern love can be a trap when it’s not right, and this single does a great job of showcasing those emotions in an entertaining, harmonic groove.”

                Hannah Connolly - From Where You Are [Review]

                September 19, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Pop

                Rating: 4.5 out of 5

                “Soft. Tender. Poignant.

                These three words are a great place to start in describing Hannah Connolly’s single, ‘From Where You Are.’

                Hints of Dolly can be heard in moments of the vocals, but beyond that soft vibration there is an emotional connectivity more in line with Jewel. This combination gives Hannah a unique sound all of her own, to go along with stellar songwriting that is layered with emotion and complexity.”

                  “Moody and brooding with an old school rock attitude, ‘Eloquently’ is the epitome of the alternative sound.

                  The lead singer does a great job of being authoritative and vulnerable all at the same time with her talented delivery.”

                                  “An interesting timber to the vocals catches your attention right away. Lyrically the writing is strong and the melody fits well with the performance. The backing chant is a bit overdone in much of the music that toes that Indie Rock/Americana/Folk vibe and here too, it did feel a bit extraneous , but overall ‘Sideways’ moves forward in a positive manner.”

                                    “Clever and funny and brutally honest for those of us who have taken a proverbial ‘Let’s Just Be Friends’ bullet to the head after daring share our feelings.

                                    This is dysfunctional rock music at it’s best.”

                                      “A nice beach vibe party song that falls somewhere between Alternative Rock and Americana. This is the kind of sound that blurs genre lines by appealing to a wide array of music lovers looking for a fun anthem.”

                                        WHATEVER WE ARE - CHURCH [Review]

                                        “Love should win out. Sadly it doesn’t always feel that way.

                                        This single uses a simple melody, and straightforward lyrics to deliver a hope that we can all get to a point where love is our guiding force.

                                        All of the voices here are powerful and strong as they take us to ‘Church.’ The hip-hop flow on the back end was a great touch to this well-produced track.”
