Linda Perry’s Make or Break Project winner Hemming set to release new album

June 11, 2015

  Hemming  was first introduced to the world through VH1’s Make or Break : The Linda Perry Project as one half of the Philadelphia punk duo Omar. Make or Break was developed by superstar producer and songwriter Linda Perry as the antithesis to reality music shows.  Martello joined the show as part of a band, but it was her solo work and a song called “Vitamins” that caught Perry’s attention and started Martello on the journey of finding and developing the voice of Hemming. At the conclusion of the show Martello was presented with the opportunity to make a record with Perry and that record is set to release on July 24th . The debut will mark the re-launch of Perry’s label, Custard Records. Hemming’s vocals draw you in and wraps you in a blanket of emotion. She brings out a honest rawness when she sings, which is so welcoming these days. She truly shines as an artist. Check out here new song, I’ll Never Be The Man For You which is off the upcoming album: [soundcloud [Read More]

Alt-Folksinger Level and The Square premiere new video

June 11, 2015

Alternative folksinger songwriter, Level and The Square are premiering a  new video for their track, Like Stones. The song is from the artist’s debut album From Here to the James highlighting singer/songwriter Nik Piscitello’s soulful voice and melodic guitar reminiscent of artists like Iron & Wine or City and Colour. Check out the video here:   The nostalgic video comes from “Piscitello’s concept of the video came from using old etiquette footage on how to date as a metaphor for how we can never really be perfect in a relationship no matter how much we try. The end when the couple jumps back on the phone and we cut to driving footage represents the moment when you just take off in your relationship and the many roads you will travel along the way.” Nik’s vocals truly carry a depth of emotion that is floating a soulful sea. You check out his complete album From Here to the James which iss available for purchase digitally on iTunes and more. Make sure to visit his social media sites so you can stay up [Read More]

Maggie Szabo road tests “Forgive and Forget” at BMI Acoustic Lounge. By Patrick O’Heffernan

June 3, 2015

  One of the many helpful things the non-profit music rights organization BMI does is produce showcases and events that spotlight new artists and gives a boost to the careers of artists ready to go to the next level.  In LA this takes many forms, including a monthly BMI Acoustic Lounge at the Genghis Cohen venue featuring four artists with only guitar or keyboard accompaniment.   This weeks’ BMI Acoustic Lounge featured emerging artists Melie Malavasi, Shyanne, Jordan Casty and the established singer/songwriter Maggie Szabo, whose career took off with the release of her single “Tidal Waves and Hurricanes” last year. The pews at GC’s were packed and the back of the room was SRO as each performer moved through the BMI protocol of sing a song, wait for the others to sing and then sing another, for a total of three songs each.   As is always the case, each artist was talented and ready. Casty, the only male singer on the stage, performed not only well, but with humor and a smile that [Read More]
