Leave it to Madonna to cash in on something that’s been around forever but make it her own. Sequels are a staple in film but I don’t think it’s been done in music, until Confessions II, a companion to her 2005 album Confessions On A Dance Floor. Historically sequels are never as good, but in…
Light Bird first hit my radar thanks to a Kickstarter campaign to get her new album, See Her, made. That’s my favorite site to discover indie artists and help get their music out into the world…unfortunately, right now it’s a transphobic world. In my gay opinion, the best way to fight this hatred is by…
Last month my partner and I went to the Reggatabar Jazz Club in Cambridge, Massachusetts to see Lenka in concert. I’ve seen her a bunch and her shows are always perfection. Her set-list spanned her career with a few new songs in the mix. After the show, she met fans at the merch table. When…
I’ve been a Wild Fire fan for a while. I love this duo because of how indie they are. Doing crowdfunding to get their music out there, allowing fans to pre-purchase albums and get some cool perks like signed CD’s, stage worn clothing or a producer title. For fans like me, who like to support…
The thing with being a Tori Amos fan is you know with each album comes a new concept. Instead of pretending like I can gaysplain the story behind Tori’s newest album, In Times Of Dragons, best to let Tori explain it, in only the way Tori can. Tori’s concepts and explanations are uniquely her own,…
If you’ve been a fan of Vanessa Carlton since the early 2000’s, her new songs “The Mountain” and “Agony Of The Flower” will bring you right back to the first time you heard her. The remainder of her new album, Veils, has the experimental electronic sound she’s been toying with on her past few albums…
After putting out a couple EPs, Charley has finally dropped her debut album, The Chronicles Of A Serial Idealist. Thankfully she’s kept her radio-friendly sound which originally made me a fan. The Chronicles Of A Serial Idealist rides the perfect pop balance, with it’s mid-tempo music mastery. Every song makes you want to either shake…
Back in 2004, I went to the theater to see “A Cinderella Story” because of Jennifer Coolidge and also became a fan of the movie’s star, Hilary Duff. I fell even more in love with Hilary during her seven-year run on the TV show “Younger.” Hilary isn’t just an actress, but also a singer. I’m…
In honor of the new year, lets celebrate with a possibly new-to-you diva. If you’re like me, you might’ve been late to the Sarah Hollins party, but better late than never. Sarah is a singer-songwriter who writes most of her songs solo and has been putting out killer music for over a decade. Each EP…
I downloaded Jules Paymer’s debut album, I Was Born Crying And I’ll Die That Way, Too, continuing my MAD (Moody Acoustic Divas) Era. If you’ve checked out my last few posts, it’s not a cry for help, really, it’s not. These singer-songwriters that I’m a fan of just keep digging deep into their traumas and…
