Shaw Evolves with False Corners
Imagine a songwriter pairing with four vocalists who bring their unique styles and personalities, creating a sort of Myers-Briggs personality types set of songs. This would be that.
Trizo 50 Celebrate Demo’s 50th
The band never really got off the ground outside of the small farming community of Norborne, Missouri about an hour east of Kansas City, but what a story DePugh weaves.
Gonzalez Smith Roll Up Solid Debut
“She’s My Girl” is a gem of a tune and definitely the antithesis of a DBT song, a prototypical, straightforward power pop gem, reminiscent of The Beatles’ “From Me To You.”
Strangers In A Strange Land Take Action
The band masters a 60s feel but succeeds in a 21st century sound, wonderfully produced. They simultaneously straddle the 20th and 21st centuries with no smoke or mirrors to be found.
Strangers In A Strange Land Drop Sharp New Single
The psychedelic popness on the single is evident and there are hooks aplenty. Make no mistake, this is no throwback sound, but a relevant 21st rock song.

John Fogerty Takes Victory Lap
So many of Fogerty’s songs have been permanently woven into the fabric of American culture. Even the casual music fan most likely knows a majority of these CCR/Fogerty tunes.
