Little Hurricane - OTL (Official Music Video)

I am a personal fan of the music from this So Cal. dirty blues duo named Little Hurricane. I’ve been promoting their music since the very beginning when I found out Anthony Catalano (Ex-Next in Line) began a new project. You may not appreciate the fondness I have for this group nor agree with me that they are one of finest most cutting edge indie artists in their genre. One thing is for certain I’m a sucker for a good hook in song and I feel that these two make beautiful music that anyone can enjoy.… Continued →

Brian McSweeney (Ex-Seven Day Jesus) Releases "As The Bluebird"

Brian McSweeney, former lead vocalist and songwriter for the alternative band Seven Day Jesus, has released a new “solo” record titled “As The Bluebird” which you can find over on NoiseTrade below. This collection of songs borders on the experimental and yet entices you into a somber relaxation. A definite “kick-back and watch the winter weather roll in type of record”. Definitely an enjoyable listen. Imagine Brian Wilson collaborating with Starflyer 59, Gotye and Radiohead then you might have an idea for the sounds. [Facebook] Continued →
