Posted on Dec 29, 2016

Hey peeps! Just a quick note to let you know we're on vacation until January 2nd. We've mentioned it on Twitter, but it occurs to me that some of you probably don't follow us. So. I thought I should finally mention it here. In...

CANDID CONVERSATION: AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH ADRIANA MATHER

Posted on Dec 19, 2016

4 comments

by Michael McCarthy Adriana Mather is a descendant of Cotton Mather, one of the key players from the Salem, Massachusetts witch trials. Accordingly, it should come as no surprise that her debut novel, the young adult best-seller How to Hang A Witch, is ripe with almost as many historical facts as it is...

NICOLE SABOUNÉ: THE LOVE IS POP INTERVIEW

Posted on Dec 12, 2016

2 comments

by Michael McCarthy After being the edgiest contestant on the one season of The Voice in Sweden and making it pretty far into the competition, Nicole Sabouné released her debut album, Must Exist, in 2014.

An Exclusive Interview with Lily Virginia

#songoftheday = BIFFY CLYRO: “RE-ARRANGE”

Posted on Dec 4, 2016

My favorite song from Biffy Clyro's latest album now has a video. I wish it showed the other guys a bit more, but then this one is kind of like a Simon Neil solo project, since he is the voice and the guitars and most of what...

An Exclusive Interview with Gigi Rowe

Posted on Dec 2, 2016

One comment

by Michael McCarthy Gigi Rowe is a pop star in the making. Based out of Miami, she makes fun songs that blend modern pop beats with early ’80’s pop vibes. Her bouncy and mighty danceable songs make me think of Madonna’s first album and Cyndi Lauper’s album She’s So Unusual. Come to think...
