Old 97's an Epic Band




One of the best things about this band is that they pull out all the stops every show they play.
Another thing; they’re an epic band that hasn’t had the commercial success they deserve. That’s all good with me, better to see them in small venues and have my psychedelic, country, alt rock mind blown, each and every time I see the Old 97′s live.
Thank you to Marie Popichak for the awesome video of a recent live show in NYC.

Bess Rogers Rocks


Whenever I tell anyone about Bess and her music, I always have to finish up with...Bess Rogers Rocks...and so she does. She rocks on guitar; and she rocks whist playing and singing lovely back up harmonies in Ingrid Michaelson's band.
As a solo artist she writes smart, witty songs that make me wanna dance. Her live shows are unpretentious and by the end of her first song the audience knows that Bess is there to have a good time. Give a listen to Bess, surely she'll make you smile, after all, Bess Rogers rocks.

Jersey Shore Music Update



The Nerds rock all kinds of popular music... a GaGa cover is inevitable. They play earnest covers of favorite tunes while managing to put their own spin on things.
