Simple to the core but nonetheless sporting a vibrant lead vocal, Stacy Gabel’s new single “High Heeled Shoes” isn’t changing the game for pop music – instead, this song just making it a little more exciting to listen to this December. As a singer/songwriter, Gabel has been flirting with a …

Tolu. A has a lot he wants to say to us in the new single and music video “My Talents” off of his debut EP Magnificent, but he won’t be speaking a word to us for the entirety of the song’s six and a half minute running time. Instead, the …

Read More »Single Review: Lost Romance “Heart on a Wire”
Crashing into existence and pummeling just about everything within reach with as furious a kick from the percussion as can be mustered from inside of a recording studio, Lost Romance’s “Heart on a Wire” isn’t the sort of single that leaves us wondering what its performers’ ultimate goal in life …
Read More »Single Review: Kate Tucker “A Little Bit of Love”
