Last month fell in love with Long Island indie artist Rorie Kelly’s awesome new album Rising Rising Rising, which is why I recently brought you an exclusive interview with her. Following that, Rorie invited me to a concert she was doing, which was to be held in someone’s house. You see, Rorie crowd...

When David Lee Roth unveiled this thought provoking acoustic song on his online Roth Show, which we'd never heard of before, the internet went wild with speculation, everyone thinking it was his farewell to Van Halen. But David finally chimed in and said that it's just poetry....

An Exclusive Interview with Legendary Hit Songwriter Even Stevens

Posted Feb 29, 2016

One comment

I recently had the pleasure of talking with one of the world’s biggest hit songwriters, a gentlemen named Even Stevens. (Awesome name, right?) When I was growing up, back when I was a kid listening to my parent’s radio station of choice, I heard some of his hits hundreds of times. There was...

Exclusive Interview: Rorie Kelly

by Michael McCarthy all photos by: Bryan Downey except where noted When many people think of indie music, the artists they often think of are artists who are actually on record labels, just small ones outside of the major label scene. Which is entirely cool, of course. Most of my favorite artists are on...

No comments

by Michael McCarthy I was recently introduced to the music of indie singer/songwriter bitter’s kiss (real name: Chloe Baker) and soon fell madly in love with it. Her always emotive voice immediately grabs you, sounding like a genetic cross between Lorde, Banks and Cœur de Pirate, three of my favorite artists. At times...

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: EMM GRYNER: 21ST CENTURY BALLADS

Posted Feb 10, 2016

One comment

When it comes to indie singer/songwriter Emm Gryner, I always have very high expectations. This might have something to do with the fact that her album Northern Gospel was my #1 album of 2011 and that her album Torrential was my #12 album of 2014. Suffice to say she’s one of my favorites,...

Everyone knows I'm a sucker for a good ballad, but today's #songoftheday is much, much better than good. It's touching with its perfect arrangement, not to mention his beautiful voice and the haunting lyrics... I doubt I'll hear many ballads this precious all year. It's that...

#songoftheday = EMMY THE GREAT: “ALGORITHM”

Posted Jan 13, 2016

No comments

Emmy The Great once again lives up to her name! “Algorithm” finds Emmy’s voice at the forefront, as she gently sings things like “pumping through my brain, it’s an algorithm,” her voice pretty as a peach. “Talk to me like you’re walking me home / Tell me something nobody knows,” goes one of...

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: Angéline: BACK TO PIKE PLACE

Posted Sep 20, 2015

No comments

Singer/songwriter Angéline was originally from Loire Atlantique in France but is now based out of London, which is where she earned her music degree. Although most of her songs are now in English, there’s clearly a French folk music influence to her sound. Additionally, she’d just visited Cuba — she loves Salsa dancing...

#songoftheday / REVIEW: Vanessa Carlton – “Blue Pool”

Posted Aug 4, 2015

No comments

Vanessa Carlton has been a piano pop sort of singer/songwriter for a long time now, but somehow her beautiful new song "Blue Pool" sounds very different from her previous music. Perhaps it's the production, as the song sounds like it was recorded outside, which gives the vocals...
