Time to rejoice and check out the new video Hallelujah from Panic! at the Disco

July 7, 2015

  Panic! at the Disco has us rejoicing with their new video for Hallelujah. I will tell you, I have been having a rough morning struggling to balance life with kids home from school, work and tending to my mother’s increased dementia/Parkinsons. It was one of those mornings where I just want to scream out but instead I put on the new song from Panic! at the Disco and suddenly… all is right in the world. The infectious new track immediately changed my mood as well as my perspective on things. You can’t help but feel rejuvenated and ready to take on any challenges or obstacles! Check it out here:   Now that you are hooked on the new track, pick up the song on iTunes http://smarturl.it/PATDHallelujah or listen on Spotify http://spoti.fi/1O7VISN or Apple Music https://itun.es/us/FD8R6. I will leave you with some videos of when we caught them perform last year in San Jose: Visit their social media sites and stay up to date on their latest news. ~ Marisol Information & Links: Website: http://www.panicatthedisco.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/panicatthedisco Twitter: https://twitter.com/panicatthedisco [Read More]

Concert Review: In Hearts Wake and Keep It For Tomorrow – Munich, Germany. By Alexandra Bock

June 29, 2015

Munich, Backstage Club, June 26th, 2015 By Alexandra Bock   So In Hearts Wake announced three headliner dates for Germany aside from their European tour with Counterparts. One of those dates was bringing the band to Munich. They had a five piece band from Leipzig, Germany, called Keep It For Tomorrow opening for them on those dates. Their music is best described as post-hardcore/metalcore. The band opened for other international acts like Being As An Ocean and Our Last Night. Their debut album ‘New Spirit’ was released in the fall of 2014. It includes a song called ‘Evolve’ with guest vocals by Jake Taylor of In Hearts Wake. But back to the show itself. They played an energetic set from start to end. You could see how they love what they are doing and the crowd responded in an equal way. Definitely a band you should check out. We’ll sure hear and see more of them in the future. Keep It For Tomorrow: It wasn’t the first time that In Hearts Wake played in Munich, [Read More]

Motor Sister rocks The Regency Ballroom with a stellar performance

June 27, 2015

Motor Sister, which features an all star lineup of Scott Ian, Jim Wilson, Joey Vera, Pearl Aday and Ryan MacMillan will leave you with your jaw on the floor wanting more! They opened for Steel Panther last night to a sold out Regency Ballroom crowd. This being their fourth live performance truly highlights the amazing musicianship of this band. You would have thought, they were just finishing up a world tour. They were spot on and highly energetic, engaging the crowd from start to finish.        Due to being out of town, I had missed their last show at the DNA Lounge and I am so glad that I had the chance to see them last night, and on such a larger stage. They completely blew us away and we hope they are ready to start doing more shows, because we can’t wait much longer for more Motor Sister! Check out some photos of their set by our Rockin Ryan: In addition, here are some videos from their set: Make sure to pick up [Read More]

Trapt release new single Passenger and catch them out on tour this summer

June 18, 2015

California Rockers TRAPT have returned with a new release of their song, Passenger. The new single is off their upcoming album, DNA. Vocalist Chris Taylor Brown comments on the song, ““Passenger” is an important song to TRAPT and the self-empowerment message it spreads. Always looking to someone else to “get you there” will never get you anywhere, as only the individual knows what is best for them. We have all been a “Passenger” at some point or another, because it’s easy to feel lost. Just know that everyone else feels this way too, even when they say they know where they are going. What separates each and every one of us, is whether or not we have the strength to actually take the wheel and put our lives into our own hands, even when we are lost. Especially when we are lost! It’s the only way to find out who we really are.” Check out the new song here: In addition, TRAPT will be heading out on tour this summer with supporters Sons Of Texas. [Read More]
