LISTEN: Isabeau Waia’u Walker Brings Dynamic Edge & Flow On Resounding “Rolled Over”

“Rolled Over”, the latest single from Isabeau Waia’u Walker is a vibrant study of seemingly antagonistic themes coming together in a seamless composition reminiscent of St. Vincent. While there aren’t any dramatic crescendos or anthemic choruses, the song’s dynamics stem from the ebb and flow between this sense of heaviness to the lightness that permeates throughout the song. It’s […]

Zero Feat. Steve Kimock Release Engrossing Live ’92 San Francisco Show as ‘Naught Again’ (ALBUM REVIEW)

Guitarist Steve Kimock hasn’t so much flown under the radar of contemporary rock as planned inside, outside, around, and through it. His most high-profile position may have been in the post-Grateful Dead group The Other Ones, assembled in the wake of Jerry Garcia’s death, but he’s led more than a few alliances under his own […]

Nate Bergman of Lionize Steps Towards Country, Blues and Rock on Solo LP ‘Metaphysical Change’ (ALBUM REVIEW)

Michael McDermott Paints Poignant Character Sketches With Insightful Wordplay Via ‘St. Paul’s Boulevard’ (ALBUM REVIEW)

Chicago-based Michael McDermott’s vocals and songwriting style easily invite comparisons to Bruce Springsteen. That’s not bad for starters.
