Angela Ortiz has an album titled All About You and it serves as a very descriptive lead in to what is inside the CD sleeve. This recording seems to be a biographical and storytelling adventure. I suppose its all in the perception of the listener as it would be with any album. It is hard […]

New York, NY–October 9, 2006– Producer/Writer/Director/Actor Emmitt Thrower and his non-profit organization Wabi Sabi Productions are bringing social issues to the stage in New York City with Katrina: A Whole Lotta Water. The play is an effective combination of stage acting and music to bring awareness to the public through the means of […]

Matthew Fogg & Nicole Hajj had a history before this album came together. They met and found a mutual admiration and respect for one thing, the art form of jazz.
It is unusual to release a debut album as a live recording, but the duo decided this was the best way to present their music at […]

Ventura, CA–September 25, 2006– The Soupy Sales 3 DVD Box Set Collection was such a great success that Morada Vision was overwhelmed with emails and phone calls for the early black & white Soupy Sales shows. They had to dig into the archives and unearth the early Soupy shows to produce the Collector’s […]

Pete Teo plants a seed then it steadily germinates with the warmth of his music, just like the sun and the rain help a flower to grow. This is the best way to explain how this music made me feel. I loved Rustic Living For Urbanites, Teo’s previous release that came out in 2004, […]

Lost Engines gives you a grand tour of the Additional Moog sound. This band sounds like many bands you have heard before yet they put their own particular twist on everything.
16 tracks is a lot of music to take in, but it’s all very enjoyable and that’s a good thing. I thought about […]

I like what John Fogerty says to the audience at the beginning of this concert. He states his music is simple straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll. I always said the same thing about Fogerty and that is the strongest reason why I continue to enjoy his music-solo and CCR tracks.
The Long Road Home-In Concert is […]

When is the last time you heard a band from Norway that sounded like the Jimi Hendrix Experience playing blues-rock as if they came from suburban America? Nickles & Dimes is that band. The have released albums every three to four years since 1993. So they do have a record of accomplishment as […]

The Raconteurs are set to go on tour with Bob Dylan. This announcement shouldn’t have come as too much of a surprise at all. As I’ve mentioned before, I am a fan of The Raconteurs and this pairing does make sense - have you seen their dress style?
No seriously, two great musicians who have […]

I’ve been listening to mvyradio out of Martha’s Vinyard and usually whenever I turn it on - 9 times out of 10 - I discover another great artist or band from this eclectic radio station that you can find on either your iTunes radio or by going to their website: http://www.mvyradio.com. Today’s find is The […]

Brazilian music is as deep and as wide as the nation itself. The traditions and styles of their musical heritage include concert forms like choro, which features violins, woodwinds and piano; samba drumming, which is the melding of the European marching drum corps and African drumming; and jazz music that blends samba rhythms […]

I often wonder how such beautiful women, both with voice and physical presence, can sing cut-to-the-bone lyrics, and mean it with every fiber of their being. Even after all these years of listening and writing reviews, it still catches me off guard. My […]

Sometimes you just can’t predict these things, but unfortunately the unexpected and usually inevitable does happen: when one of the best local bands calls it a day. I say local band because Suitable Case For Treatment has been gigging here in Oxford for the last three years or so and then eventually they […]

Sue Merchant has released an acoustic folk masterpiece called Fool. The simplicity of the instrumentation, beautiful melodies (notably on the opening title track) and Merchant’s clear and atmospheric voice, at times classically influenced with a definitive English accent, along with her descriptive and thoughtful lyrics, […]
