Thadeus Gonzalez releases new video for emotionally driven track, Change The Locks

October 13, 2015

Thadeus Gonzalez truly captures your attention with his new video for his emotionally driven track, Change The Locks. There is such a depth of vulnerability in this song that touches your soul and awakens your heart. I love this track and the vocals of Thadeus carries a weight of emotion that really grabs you and delivers a sense of clarity. Gonzalez wrote the song about taking responsibility for your actions; by “changing your locks” to keep the worst of the way you behave out while only letting the best of you in, and the struggle that that entails. “When that much emotion is felt in a song, it’s difficult to find images that benefit the music. For “Change the Locks,” my old family footage really gave the music a nice lift,” said Gonzalez. Check out the video here: The video was produced by Scott Reategui Richards and Gonzalez, and shot in San Francisco. The track was produced by Dennis Hill (Hagar/Satriani, Lit, Good Charlotte) and recorded/mixed by Kyle Homme (Matt Costa, Sugarcult, Reel Big Fish). Hill [Read More]

Ozone Mama’s new album Sonic Glory celebrates the authentic sound of rock and roll!

October 3, 2015

Ozone Mama, hailing from Budapest, Hungary have continued to capture my attention with their music. They have wholeheartedly given a fresh new facelift to the classic rock of the 60’s and 70’s. As I have mentioned before, they bring out a heavier vibe and an absolutely addictive sound. I can’t get enough of them. The gritty vocals of Marton are so infectious and sultry. He brings out such a nostalgia for 70s classic rock. The guitars are sexy and dirty and have that raw edge that the Golden Era of Classic Rock would maintain. Ozone Mama has just released a new album, Sonic Glory and is a brilliant work of art. This album truly celebrates the authentic sound of rock and roll which has been missing for some time now in the scene. The seven song album is filled with the infectious rockin tracks reminiscent of the 60’s or 70’s yet swaddled in a modern vibe. The first thing that stood out is the amazingly authentic vintage sound that the album has and I love! [Read More]
