Write a comment Here’s something that, if you grew up watching The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air and listening to DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince’s Summertime, is going to make you feel old: Willow Smith, Will Smith’s youngest child, is twenty years old. TWENTY. Seriously, where does the time go?
Write a comment Irish four-piece The Academic dropped their debut album Tales From The Backseat in 2018 to positive reviews, it’s blend of youthful exuberance and noughties-inspired indie, as well as the band’s reputation for exhilarating live shows, winning them fans both in the UK and at home in Ireland, where it hit number one in the Irish Album Charts. They built on that momentum last year with Acting My Age, a six-track EP recorded with Nick Hodgson of the Kaiser Chiefs that spawned the single of the same title, a mainstay of their live sets.
Write a comment One Week was the ludicrously catchy track littered with pop culture references that first turned on a whole host of listeners around my age to the Barenaked Ladies in the late 1990s. It remains the band’s calling card and biggest hit, and still serves as the best introduction to their work for anyone who has not yet (somehow) heard them. Though, thanks to the sheer runaway success of the TV show The Big Bang Theory, for which the band created the distinctive theme song, that title is arguably under threat.
Write a comment A lot of people claim punk, metal, and rock artists make the best ballads. YUNGBLUD’s new single, Mars, is a testament to that.
Write a comment Known for his vintage, soulful sound, Leon Bridges steps a foot into a more modern sound with his newest single, Why Don’t You Touch Me.
Write a comment Before you hear this track for the first time, you read the title and you know this is going to be something epic! Then the track starts with an almost cinematic crescendo, with harps, horns & strings all building anticipation and in the last second of the intro you have no idea what’s about to hit you.
Write a comment It’s the icing on the cake, it’s the cherry on top, the very highlight of summer, yes the summer fling is an old classic that never gets old, and I’m glad Nina has captured this vibe in her latest effort “ Summer Fling “.
Write a comment Ahh yessss ! Punk rock and sticky, beer-soaked carpet, a unique smell that’s hard to forget.
Write a comment There’s a song for every moment of your day, and if you’ve just woken up and poured your first coffee, let Courtney Barnett ease you into your day, with her latest effort, Rae Street.
Write a comment Some say its Neo Soul, some say it’s retro. Either way Curtis never lets anyone down.
Write a comment One person, an acoustic guitar and a capo. This is quintessential folk/Americana at its best.
Write a comment The sun’s as hot as can be in early July, and Tyler Shaw does nothing to help with the heat. In fact, he decided to release a burning hot single, Sex on the Beach, which will groove you into the rest of summer.
Write a comment It’s time to break out your vintage AKAI drum machine, and bring that retro sound to the new generation.
Write a comment Take two parts punk, one part rock and a dash of pop, mix well in a test tube and out comes a high octane cracker of a song called “Contact High”!
