It’s Music Friday again and this time we will be showcasing songwriters. Most of the bands that we feature have at least one great songwriter in the crew, but today we are looking at songwriters who generally perform alone or with the help of a few friends or a small back up band. Their...

Here is is Music Friday again. Where does the time go? This week we are featuring Indies all with their own distinct sound. This isn’t the top 40 type stuff you hear on the radio. This is very unique music that you only get from Indie artists who are following their muse not the...

Luke Thomas is an artist from Somerset, England. He came to my attention through Andy Hearn. Luke describes his music as Acoustic / Alternative / Folk. Luke’s is kind of a dream story. He was discovered on myspace by Dene Kellaway, owner of the Tree and Bloomfield Labels who signed Luke to the Bloomfield...

Time for some good old rock this Friday. My personal taste in rock has always run toward Irish and English Rock and today’s bands reflect that. There is a lot of similarity between Irish Rock and the original songs we love by some of our favorite Celt Rock bands. There are a few favorites...
