Read more‘Silver Spire’ by Years of the Modern Is a Song About How We All Show Love in Different Ways
‘Silver Spire’ by Years of the Modern is their newest track about love.

When we meet people that we love – it starts to feel like they were designed to be in our lives because we couldn’t

Nouhi’s Nomad is an Iranian-American multi-instrumentalist genre-fluid creator based in New York City. Persian music and contemporary rock go well in addition to his background in classical music, therefore all three styles are shining through within his Persian percussion, hypnotic and unique melodies, as well as stripped-down guitar backings. ‘Number 4’ is the fourth track of Nomad’s debut LP. The

Tigera is a new pop rock quintet on the block and they’re out with a debut EP. It’s three songs; they explore themes of low self-confidence, a significant other making you feel more confident, and feeling destroyed without said significant other.

Read moreWye Oak at Turner Hall: A Review
Wye Oak played at Turner Hall Ballroom Tuesday, Aug. 2. It is a band I listened to constantly throughout college, kind of a darker indie rock duo that gained tons of traction through the song “Civilian” on its 2011 album named the same. I want to say it was used in a Walking Dead teaser. Don’t quote me on that.

Jose Gonzalez preformed at the Pabst Theater on Saturday, March 19, joined by classical sextet yMusic. If the thought of a Saturday night show at the Pabst gives you visions of whiskey cokes, crushed PBR cans and heavy guitar riffs drowned by a screaming crowd, you are deathly (or sweetly) mistaken. Jose Gonzalez put me to sleep on a Saturday

So, with my Ipod dead, I turned to the radio on my drive home tonight. That’s when I heard this song. I liked it from the opening lines and chords, prompting me to use my SoundHound app while driving (which may or may not be more illegal than texting and driving) to find out who it was. Unfortunately, there isn’t
