Ryan Reed August 2, 2011 No Comments

When not functioning as the composer, guitarist, producer, and overall "dictator" behind the experimental prog-rock of The Mars Volta, Lopez has been known to release a solo album or 400. Since he started recorded solo projects in 2004, he's put out around 30 discs (including a whopping 10 in 2010), not including the five Mars Volta albums, dating back to their 2003 debut, De-Loused in the Comatorium.

Peter Zimmerman August 1, 2011 No Comments

Paula Cole’s career in pop music has enjoyed its fair share of successes and obstacles; however, what remains in 2011 is an artist fully devoted to her craft, ready to create work that is artistically bold, aesthetically dynamic and inextricably tied to her journey.

Andy Hunter – On Automatic

Brian Palmer July 29, 2011 No Comments

After releasing three successful electronica albums, having his tracks featured in a number of popular movies and TV shows, developing a worldwide audience and even helping to score a film, you might think that Andy Hunter would have no trouble getting enough support to make another album. This was not the case, however, and the creation of his latest EP, Collide, took a much different path than he expected.

Leslie Michele Derrough July 13, 2011 No Comments

Peter Case – Musicologist & Renaissance Man

Doug Collette July 6, 2011 No Comments

Peter Case takes nothing for granted, no doubt why he keeps so busy with touring (solo and in collaboration with assorted like-minded musicians), his songwriters workshops, recurring reunions with The Plimsouls and since his recuperation period, the researching of his archives; the first fruits of which are The Case Files collection just out in May. He qualifies as a renaissance man.
