“Very well put together. Raw vocals accompanied by “folk style” production. This artist touches on a subject which isn’t often sung about. “Queer Love”. Daring, honest, and heart felt. Although the vocals come off somewhat raw, they most definitely get the point across of the song. Great listen. ”
“Song starts off with a blast of energy. The lead vocalist sings with such conviction in both his tone and delivery of the songs heartfelt lyrics. Pure rock vibes from the banging of the drums to the loud but controlled vocals and harmonizations. Would love to hear more from this band. ”

“If you like 60’s and 70s music you will like Mark Alan Wilson’s “Better Man”. It takes you on the journey of a man who realizes there is room for change. It aligns with the tempo without providing a finger snap. The back vocal support is amazing and keeps you interested even leading into the solo.”

It’s about aligning yourself with the universe and not caring who does follow.”

“Chasing a dream comes with some sacrifices and tough decision but when you have true passion and follow your heart those decisions are almost a relief. This song is about Wax Owls vocalist, Gerry Hirschfeld given in to his creative hunger and transitioning from a career as a lawyer to full-time songwriter and performer.
’The Appetite’ is an Indie folk ode to passion and faith that things will work out when you allow yourself to be free and chase your dreams.. ”
“Mental health is something we all face on one way or another and in doing so we realize the path isn’t linear. There are up and downs. Progress and missteps and that in itself can derail lives.

Usually when you have one hit its hard to drop another song thats a hit.Well Big Boss Vette continues to be one of the biggest new breakout artists out of St. Louis.Her latest single “ION NEED” is pure presidential lyrical status that will have every one rocking to it.”
“Life can be confusing. People want you to be who they want to be instead of tryin got understand who you are. 19AD4 talks about how things doesn’t make sense but its really because people don’t try to understand. The song is upbeat as well a with a little retro.”
“Once a player doesn’t mean you are always a player. This song is pure soul as the hope of love is addressed through the vocals of Elle. You tend to be a different person when the heart is involved but no one wants to be played.”
“ I like the track. It intertwines folk and country together. As a transgender singer-songwriter Ryan Cassata speaks about forever being a Daddy’s Girl at heart but finding true self at the same time. The string of guitars allows you to pull into the emotion of dad and Ryan.”
“Erik Cain’s “Pride” starts off with a strong hip-hop melody that reminds you of Jay-Z’s “Song Cry”. He speaks on foundation, and the journey of finding his way. The song is meant to tell a story but also motivate anyone who is listening. The song is poetic and goes straight to church toward the end, where you will find yourself clapping as well.”

“Three Second Chances brings the energy and a throwback spirit on their new track, ‘Living Out Loud.’ If P!nk put out a disco track I imagine it would sound a lot like this though the vocals here have a bit of 80s tone and style as well. The track still manages to feel contemporary and easily swept me up and along for the build. ”
“Dutch duo, Vicetone, drops this danceable EDM track but don’t let yourself think this is a catchy beat with throwaway lyrics. The tone is light and airy but there is genuine emotion at the heart and a spirit of home to the build and progression. This is the kind of track that really grows on you with each listen so add it to your playlists and dig in, because this song as well as ‘The World Has A Heartbeat,’ and if you listen in you will both hear and feel it. ”
“Leroy From The North gives us a track that feels a bit like sitting on a bar stool and having a beer while listening to your buddy tell you about the girl he just met. You could call this Southern Rock or Americana as it has both Petty and Sturgill vibes for sure. Easy to listen to and find your own emotional relevance ‘Push’ is a track I will be adding to several of my personal playlists. ”
