Typically I look at Bad Brains as one [...]

Bonnie “Prince” Billy is pretty much everybody’s favorite guy. He’s Drunkard’s favorite dude. Daytrotter’s all about him. And even Pitchfork is giving it up. Like I said, he’s pretty much everybody’s favorite guy. But, Idolator asks…shouldn’t Andrew WK be your favorite guy? I say yes. I’ve said it [...]

Acclaimed East-Coast folk instrumentalist Duane Andrews’ recent offering, Crocus, represents a shift towards further defining himself as a tangibly diverse musician. Throughout there are flirtations with ragtime, a variety of waltzes and boggy jazz lullabies, all proving Andrews to be either a glutton for genre-defying mood shifts or simply a wonderful musician.

Daniel Heffner is a unique musician whose style sounds something like a busker playing to an upwardly mobile house of philharmonic-going spectators is exactly that. Heffner, who built his craft from a young age, has in fact played as an opener for the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra; but don’t let that sway you, his roots [...]

In all honesty in most all cases since Rushmore I haven’t had much taste for Jason Schwartzman. His awkward role in the comedic Slackers creeped me out rather than making me laugh (with him) and I Heart Huckabees completely missed its mark. His role in Sophia Coppola’s upcoming Marie Antoinette: The Party That [...]

One time member of such bands as The Psychedelic Furs, Thompson Twins, Berlin and The Cure, Roger O’Donnell branches out further into abstract electronic with his solo debut The Truth In Me.
