Los Angeles based singer, Tara Macri releases new video for her song, Prettiest Girl In The Room and it truly is a great feel good song for a much needed pick me up. Everyone has those times where they feel hopeless, sad or in despair and it may seem so hard to rise from those feelings. What is special, is when you have that one person whom you know you can call on, to make you feel like the Prettiest Girl In The Room. That is the message behind the song. Tara comments about the video, The fashion and look in the video was inspired by Audrey Hepburn. We were going for a modern day Audrey Hepburn look. I love her uniqueness & classiness and have always been a huge fan of hers. In any situation I always ask – what would Audrey Hepburn do?” Check out the video here: Tara brings out such a natural honesty when she sings and creates an emotional connection with the listener.

Mary Scholz is back, more beautiful, more edgy and stronger than ever at Room 5 Lounge. By Patrick O’Heffernan

August 3, 2015

West Hollywood. Last year when I reviewed Mary Scholz’s live performance at Hollywood’s Hotel Café, I wrote, “To see Mary Scholz is to fall in love… you want to spend the rest of your life listening to her”. I saw her sing live again this weekend and I am still in love. After eight months on the road she has become even more beautiful, more edgy and stronger on stage than ever. Her performance at the Room 5 Lounge on Saturday night showed us a more mature song writer, a more confident performer and an artist completely at ease with making everyone in the room fall in love with her. And they did. Scholz treated the room – which was packed with friends, fans and family, judging from the cheering and banter – with 12 songs, most of them new tunes that she wrote while on the road, plus a few from her previous albums. After a mic check and some friendly banter, she quieted the room with her achingly melancholy “Mournful Noise” from [Read More]

July 13, 2015

The song is about growing up and losing friendships that you’re trying to hold on to. It is about holding onto things that make you, you.” Liz is set to release her new EP later this summer.
