Quinn Sullivan is a beast. There is no other way to put it. He has been rubbing noses with legends since he was in kindergarten, having performed with the likes of Santana, Buddy Guy, and B.B. King. He has consistently held his own onstage with these icons, and now, at just 22 years old, Sullivan is, arguably, one of the best musicians of his

Bazzi Continues Musical Evolution with “Will It Ever Feel The Same”
Bazzi rose to fame just a few years ago with his self-penned hit “Mine.” The song, which is nearing 900 million streams on Spotify, is just over two minutes long and featured one of the first recognizable “viral trend moments” in modern pop music with its now iconic opening line, “You so… f***ing… precious… when you… smile.” The entire song itself could likely be
Milky Chance Happily Welcome Apocalypse in New Video, “Synchronize”
Let’s face it. Some artists, no matter how great their catalog, will always be remembered for that ONE song. You’ve got Natasha Bedingfield with “Pocketful Of Sunshine,” Leona Lewis with “Bleeding Love” and Bastille with “Pompeii” (though, personally, the Seeb remix of their song “Grip” is their best, hands down), along with so many others, and you can absolutely throw Milky Chance in there
Like Shania, Taylor, and Dolly Before Her: Ashley Kutcher is a Musician Who Can’t Be Defined
Every once in a while, you hear a song that immediately takes your breath away. One that paints a picture. One that takes you back down memory lane to relive memories of carefree youthful energy. One that makes you feel like, somehow, the writer was in your head when they wrote it. Ashley Kutcher’s “Love You From A Distance,” with poignant lyrics like; “Remember
Cade Hoppe’s Vulnerable New EP, Everything That’s Wrong With You, Is Out Now
Warning: the first bit of this piece is going to be extremely informal. I will be addressing Cade Hoppe by his first name for the time being. This year started with me getting emailed a pitch to cover Cade’s song “Hurts” that was set to come out a few weeks later. I had never heard of him before, so I listened to his songs
New Track: Goldpark Release New Single “Lady Lightyear”
Goldpark, an impressive alternative rock trio from Nashville, is back with their newest single “Lady Lightyear.” The group follows in the footsteps of acts like COIN and The Happy Fits with arena-ready pop/rock tunes with solid hooks, catchy guitar riffs, and an overall positive vibe that will make the listener want to get up and dance. Their first release, 2020’s “Morning Light,” is, at
New Track: “Love Bracelets” – IZZA
IZZA’s bio on Instagram reads “people pleaser turned bad b!tch pop singer.” Usually, musicianship and people pleasing go hand in hand, since attracting an audience is the only way to make it as an artist, but IZZA seems confident in her abilities to get things done her way. No outside interference, no pandering for likes or streams… none of that. In one of the
Your Favorite Pop Underdog: AJ Smith Talks New Song “Nobody,” Billy Joel, and More
When AJ Smith took the stage at the Patchogue Theatre on Long Island, NY for his SoFar Sounds performance in October 2018, it was a clear shift from a night of developing artists to watching someone who had it all figured out. The presentation, the audience connection, all of it. I kept up with AJ from that night on, and have been very pleased
New Track: “Romeo and Juliet” – PEACH MARTINE
Peach Martine’s latest single “Romeo and Juliet” is, to put it lightly, a head-scratcher. At surface level, it is the kind of Gen-Z pop-punk that will do big numbers on Tik Tok due to its comedic and slightly tone-deaf take on a classic love story, but there is more to it than meets the eye. Martine’s music may have its fair share of comical undertones, but she is certainly one to
Nightly Keeps It Moving With Two New Tracks, “about you” and “Hate My Favorite Band”
Nightly continues their steady stream of releases with two new tracks. The first, “about you” with Swedish electro duo NOTD and solo single “Hate My Favorite Band.” Despite great collaborations thus far, and having opened for some big names, being on the bill with NOTD is an impressive feat. The duo, who are best known for tracks like “I Wanna Know” with Bea Miller
