Nick Jonas Solo Reminds Us We’re All Human

On Sunday night, Nick Jonas did something every guitarist has done likely in the hundreds of times. He flubbed a solo. For Nick though, it didn’t happen in a garage around friends or at a bar with a dozen already buzzed patrons. It was at the 51st Annual American Country Music Awards held in the […]

Keith Emerson of Emerson, Lake, and Palmer Dead at 71

It’s with heavy hearts that we’re looking back on the career of Keith Emerson from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, following his passing from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on March 10. Arguably, one of the first visionary keyboardists to make the move from traditional keyboards into the realm of synthesizers. Striking off with Greg Lake from previous groups […]

Sir George Martin Dead at 90

Sir George Martin will always be remembered as the Fifth Beatle, but today we remember the great gift he provided to the world. Originally, he dreamt of being the next Rachmaninov or Ravel, ideas he gleaned from witnessing the power of a full blown symphony orchestra at a young age. His first real career would […]

Neon Bunny – 서울 하늘 Romance in Seoul

Though we’re already two months into 2016, I’d like to take some time out to note two releases that struck the most chords with me last year. Without a doubt I’ve been gobsmacked by my favorite single of 2015: Neon Bunny’s 서울 하늘 Romance in Seoul, and it’s the first release I’d like to talk about. How come? […]

Maurice White of Earth, Wind, and Fire Dead at 74

Maurice White’s battle with Parkinson’s may have ended on Feb. 4th, but something vastly important will live on in the legacy of his music. Turn on the radio, maybe to that side of the dial you tend to neglect, or listen to more voraciously than others, and before today you’d be bound to hear something […]

David Bowie at 69

David Bowie will rise again. Much like the biblical Lazarus, I believe it won’t be from his own doing. Something we’ve learned from our modern world is how vast and varied the places and people are that have been touched by his living record. As news of his passing goes around, we start to feel how […]

Cage The Elephant – Tell Me I’m Pretty

I know you’ve been listening to the Star Wars: The Force Awakens soundtrack on loop for the past week. Put “Scherzo for X-Wings” on pause for a moment because Cage The Elephant — known for hits like “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked” and “Shake Me Down” that you probably still hear on your favorite […]

Brand New – Daisy

Brand New is a curious outfit, in that they draw fans from virtually every tribe and more or less change their sound between each record. Their debut album, Your Favorite Weapon, can be described as a straightforward emo punk record, and while their sophomore release has plenty of “emo” characteristics, Deja Entendu is anything but generic. The Devil […]
