Catch Black Oxygen out on their “Beating Time” USA/Canada Tour

April 20, 2014

Last year I told you about my first experience with Black Oxygen. From the moment I heard them, I was HOOKED! Here is an excerpt from that previous post: “It is Monday night and are you ready to get hooked on an KILLER Rock Band??? Sit back, relax and breathe  in the fresh new life of Black Oxygen!  Holy Shit, these guys are amazing. They have a sound that is definitely of their own and it reminds me of a blend of Stone Temple Pilots and Puddle of Mudd. Founder David Lyle not only is an amazing singer/songwriter but also the lead guitarist. Then you have bad ass Jordan Myer on bass and solid drumming by David’s younger brother Nick Lyle. These three guys create a powerful trio that has a big sound that will have you take notice.”   Black Oxygen is set to release another album, “Beating Time” which will be out on May 6th. You can pre-order the album here. I can’t wait for the it since their last album, “The American Dream” [Read More]

Perfect way to start your week is by cranking up some of The Black Moods!

April 14, 2014

Some people dread Mondays but I love them. I love the challenge of a new week ahead, new beginnings and especially finding new music to share with you all. Today I have a great band out of Arizona, a three piece rock band, The Black Moods. How do I describe them? Well, let’s see, they have great guitar driven songs, infectious melodies, energetic vocals and an upgraded version of old school rock and roll. Imagine the great songwriting of Tom Petty meets the energy and passion of the Foo Fighters along with a side order of Collective Soul.  They are Josh Kennedy on Lead Guitar/Vocals, Ryan Prier on Bass/Vocals and Chico – Drums/Percussion. Together they have collectively brought the rock influences of the past 40 years and have created their own unique signature sound.  You are going to love them, I know I instantly did after checking out their latest music video for their song, Don’t Let Them Get You Down   Don’t Let Them Get You Down is off of their self titled debut album and can [Read More]

What better way to announce the tour dates for the upcoming Aerosmith & Slash summer tour than playing a surprise show at The Whisky a GoGo in Hollywood. Well that is exactly what happened today. I was sitting in my doctor’s office as I get the tweet announcing Slash is set to perform with Aerosmith at the Whisky.

Blue October reawakens your soul with their spectacular performance on the SWAY Tour

April 1, 2014

  Last night was pretty much the highlight for me of 2014! We went out to see Blue October at the Ace of Spades, as they have begun another leg of the SWAY tour. I caught them last year as they put on a spectacular performance in San Francisco.  Every time I leave a Blue October concert, I catch myself saying the exact same thing… I never thought they could exceed how excellent they were at their last performance and every time, they prove me wrong. They hit it out of the ballpark each and every time. Last night was another one of those unbelievable sets. We arrived to a packed house on a Monday night at the Ace of Spades. One thing I love about Blue October fans, is there is no cookie cutter fan. Blue October‘s music extends across genres, generations and cultures. The room was filled with a diverse passionate crowd that comes together for the pure love of Blue October‘s music.  Many fans who have never met, were soon sharing their Blue [Read More]
