Track Fighter always delivers a high energy rock show!

February 27, 2014

We have been watching Track Fighter for quite a while now. They are one of the hardest working Alternative/Rock/Metal bands in the Bay Area. The first time we saw them was several years ago and one thing is for sure, they have never let up on their high energy performance. We were glad to see them opening up for Eve to Adam and Escape the Fate at the Ace of Spades last week. They were great once again as they continued to unleash their intense set on their hometown of Sacramento. You can check out two tribute videos that Rockin Ryan put together which includes footage and photos from their Sacramento set: If you don’t already have it, you can pick up their 5 song EP Revenge on Itunes here  which has their crowd favorite, L.A. For now, make sure to visit their social media sites and stay up to date on the latest news from Track Fighter. ~ Marisol Information & Links: Website: www.trackfightermusic.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/trackfighter Twitter:  www/twitter.com/TrackFighter Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/Trackfighterteam

Chiodos premiere their new song, 3 AM and link for pre-order for DEVIL

February 25, 2014

Today, Chiodos premiere their new song, 3 AM on Billboard. Their new song 3 AM is off of their upcoming album, DEVIL which is set for an April 1st release through Razor & Tie. Singer/Songwriter, Craig Owents takes more about the very honest and personal song, “I think I had something to say and was in the right place to say it this time, For a good six months when we started talking about the new Chiodos record and started talking about the next phase of what it is we were gonna do, I couldn’t really sleep. I grabbed my guitar and went downstairs at 3 a.m. one morning, the sink was dripping in the background. And I thought about the Beatles song, ‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps,’ and I was thinking about how simple it is and how you can just sing about the things that are really happening in your life…without hiding what it is I”m trying to say. It didn’t have to be this metaphorical epic or anything like that. I think it’s [Read More]

Lily Elise surprise show blows away Molly Malone’s Saturday night. By Patrick O’Heffernan

February 24, 2014

Lily Elise surprise show  blows away Molly Malone’s Saturday night. Patrick O’Heffernan, Host of Music Friday Live!   Patrons at Molly Malone’s Saturday night got a nice bonus, thanks to a cancellation and some rescheduling: the nationally recognized R&B singer Lily Elise rocked them out at the coveted 10:45 pm slot.  Lily Elise, best known for being coached by pop icon Christina Aguilera on NBC’s The Voice, is a powerful R&B vocalist who can hit the high notes with ease and belt the blues with best of the blues queens of any era. And she did both to the delight of a house full of dancing fans. Lily Elise got things going right off the bat with “Dance with Somebody”,  the George Merrill and Shannon Rubicam song made famous by Whiney Houston on her first album.  She carried it off with her own high energy style that got everyone moving and brought cheers from the floor. She followed with “Kaleidoscope” and  “Crash”, each one showcasing her powerful voice and her ability to connect with an audience.  When [Read More]
