June 7, 2016

  LIVE105 KITS San Francisco has once again delivered a successful BFD! This past weekend the Saturday festival featured over 30 artists among four stages. There was non-stop music as the fans braved the heat and danced all day.  The Soundcheck Local Band Stage was actually a favorite of ours as these local bands delivered phenomenal sets! They definitely had us take notice of all of them and we look forward to featuring all of them on Music Junkie Press. The Bud Light Subsonic Tent was definitely a nonstop party as it had the crowd dancing from start to finish with DJ sets and bands. We were excited to catch Blaqk Audio and Davey Havok blew us away with his stage presence.  Another highlight was Bishop Briggs who truly had the crowd energized. The Bud Light Festival Stages featured side by side stages that allowed for continuous bands performing without a break. It ran smoothly and each set was stellar.  Highlights for us was the high energy of The Story So Far, catching Wolfmother and [Read More]

Station release music video for One and Only

May 19, 2016

Station have just released their new music video for their bad ass track, One and Only. The music video was directed by Adam Gendler and features  Jennifer Leah Gottlieb of That Metal Show! Check it out here: Chris Lane comments about One and Only in his Track by Track guide of their debut album, Pat and I wrote this song one night around me saying “oh oh” over and over. Part of me thinks he said, “lets work on that” just to shut me up. When we wrote it, we immediately saw a way to work this into our set to add a different feel. Pat immediately came up with this feel on the drums that was very different than any of our other songs. We brought it to rehearsal and had such a great time with it. One of the things we really enjoy about this song is that we can use it to really take our time on stage. We can jam on it, play with the crowd or just play it straight. It’s [Read More]

Watch the new lyric video from State Line Empire for We All Float

May 18, 2016

  State Line Empire have just released a lyric video for their track, We All Float which is off their new EP, Tres Leches. State Line Empire truly brings back the raw honest way rock should be made, through analog and letting the music speak for itself. The song We All Float was a special one for them as Cat told us in a recent interview, Music Junkie Press: Now is there a certain song on the EP that really is more personal for you? Cat: Ya, I think so. All the songs are great. The one that I think, and I think this is unanimous, the one that really holds the most weight for us, is this new song called We All Float. Music Junkie Press: and why is that so special? Did you guys work on that song collaboratively. Cat: Ya, We did. And the band itself and it’s sound, has been evolving a lot over the last year. And I think that song really represents a turning point for us, musically. It is just a [Read More]
