  • Anthony Raneri: New Cathedrals EP

    AnthonyRaneri-promo

    It’s fairly obvious that Anthony Raneri doesn’t need advice or an introduction when it comes to his music. Therefore, Raneri’s collection of songs on New Catherdals is vast and interesting as no one song sounds like another. So the genre can basically be referred to as a question mark. It’s comparable to New York State-

    What kind of music do you like? “Oh, everything but country.” If that’s you described above, please move on because you’re missing out. If you’re still with me, I’ll present Anthony Raneri’s new song “Sandra Partial.” This is the second song released from the Bayside frontman’s new five-song solo EP, New Cathedrals, which is available

  • 10 You Should Know: 2011 Folk

    10 You Should Know - Folk

    2011 has come and gone and was a great year for folk artists, both old and new. Bands like Fleet Foxes, who have already made a great name for themselves with multiple albums and accolades, as well as newcomers like The Head and the Heart, have shined this year. Folk is a very varied genre, encompassing

  • She & Him: A Very She & Him Christmas

    She and Him - Promo

    There is no doubt that you’re familiar with Zooey Deschanel. Between her role in “Elf,” her singing of the National Anthem at the World Series, various indie flicks, and her new “adorkable” (I cringe at typing that) series “New Girl,” Deschanel has certainly made a name for herself. However, not everyone is aware of her

    While it is no secret that I am a lover of great folk music, there is one instrument that always makes me simultaneously want to dance and become an expert string-plucker: the banjo. Whether it’s in fast bluegrass, traditional Americana, or heartfelt folk, the twang of the banjo is consistently music to my ears. These

  • Aaron Strumpel: Birds

    The stigma of your stereotypical “indie” artist is a tough one to break, unless of course, you manage to become so “indie” that nobody else is as “indie” as you. This is certainly the case for the outside-the-box sound which up-and-coming singer/songwriter Aaron Strumpel is responsible for. Strumpel’s latest album, Birds, is musical innovation at its finest

  • Feist: Metals

    Feist - Promo

    I know that “1234” may have been the first song you put on your iPod after that commercial, but don’t expect another pop ditty like that on Metals. You may have also enjoyed the cheery “Mushaboom,” but again, don’t expect the Feist you have heard in the past. Metals is just that: metallic, harder, and

  • Kevin Devine: Between the Concrete and Clouds

    It should be renamed Between the Fake Pen Mustaches and Beach Photographs, because that’s where this is headed. For Kevin Devine’s sixth album, which is really titled Between the Concrete and Clouds, there is going to be review discrepancy. On one hand, it is guaranteed love by what is known as “the elitists” because one
