Check out the new track California Letdown from Teddy Cosmo

October 23, 2023

  Some people are annoyed with the suggested posts as they are mindlessly scrolling through Instagram, but today, that is not me.  I saw a snippet of a song and immediately had to find out who it was and how to get the track. The song was called California Letdown and it was a new release from Teddy Cosmo. I had to find out more. It states the following on the profile: Teddy Cosmo musician, producer, podcaster, ♿cerebral palsy, wheelchair user, Berklee College of Music and from NYC. The song is amazing, the vocals remind me of a young Morrissey but with a modern production that captures the depth and tones of the emotions. Check out the track on Spotify here or take a listen below: As I delved deeper, I found his EP Ouchie and it is an alternative indie gem!  Check out the track Distant Stars and tell me how you can’t get hooked on it.

Excited to share the new track from Hey Violet as they sign to Hopeless Records

October 16, 2023

We are so excited to share the awesome news of Hey Violet signing to Hopeless Records. As the Los Angeles based alt pop band ushers in a new era the release of their new single, i should call my friends makes a big splash. The infectious new track will have longtime fans and new ones dancing along in no time. Vocalist Rena Lovelis shares of the Track:    “i should call my friends” is a cry to a nostalgic reminiscing of youth and the song is simultaneously calling out bad habits I (Rena) slip into sometimes, like isolating and not keeping in contact with people as much as I normally would. This song is a super fun but acutely self-reflective anthem that paints a picture of a widely felt human experience – our need for connection with each other and compassion for ourselves. This song really touches on struggles with mental illness and how that in itself can make one feel incredibly disconnected. We want listeners to know that if you feel that way, you are not [Read More]

Check out new music from alternative rockers Stray + The Wild

October 13, 2023

Dark alternative rockers Stray + The Wild have just released their latest single, Show Me The Way. The new track is exactly what we needed to get us ready for the weekend. Guitarist and songwriter, Alan Dämien, shares, “We realize that we need to put our own ideas about life behind us if we want to write songs that can reach out to the souls of people. We want them to see what’s really happening in the world.” “We all go through so many circumstances that define who we are. People get hung up with bad habits, life events, and become comfortable in their own personal situations. These songs were written to wake people up, to show them how we’re treating the planet, each other, and every living creature, with hopes that we will individually become self-aware and do the right thing.” Produced by the renowned Mudrock, known for his work with Avenged Sevenfold, Linkin Park, Godsmack, and Deftones, and recorded by Mudrock and Alan Dämien, this single is a testament to the band’s commitment to creating music that resonates with the souls of [Read More]

September 19, 2023

Mondays can always be hard to get through, but not when you know you are catching Ron Gallo’s show at night. We couldn’t wait for the day to end so we could find ourselves at one of our favorite venues, The Brick and Mortar in San Francisco. The night was even better when we found out that Life Size Models were opening the show. We were excited to check out their new music and they kicked the night off with a high energy set. It was a fantastic night and Ron Gallo put on a performance that highlighted his edgy blend of alt-punk rock vibes. He is like a punk rock Bob Dylan and I am here for it ALL! His music is so damn catchy and you can’t hold yourself still. You need to MOVE and feel the energy that he brings to life. His lyrics are amazing as he delivers  the raw truth commentary on some of today’s topics. We need more Ron Gallo and everyone needs Ron Gallo in their lives! Check [Read More]
