New Music: Salvatore Sgarlata

Coming from the UK, Salvatore Sgarlata has a unique style blending several genres together for a sound you do not hear too often today. The guitar is awesome and lead vocals are smooth and relaxing on the current song in rotation on www.hardcoremix.com called "Another World 2012". Another cool thing is he can sing in multi languages. You do not hear too many artists doing that. Check out Salvatore Sgarlata at http://www.reverbnation.com/salvatoresgarlata

New Music: Blackberry Wednesday

Blackberry Wednesday is a wonderful mix of Rock and Pop that you will absolutely love. Their first single "Hey I" sounds very Rock and had my head bobbing with it's driving guitar and drums.

The 5 band members Rod Henson (Vocals), Chris Leerskov (Guitar), Sir Lucien Croy (Guitar), Matt Martone (Bass) and Dave Wade (drums) really come together to create a great sound.

They sound very polished and as good if not better than anything out today. Check them out at their website http://www.blackberrywednesday.com

Their debut album "Start Again" is well worth checking out.

Do you like Jazz? Check out Flute played Richard Brown

Richard Brown is a master Flute player. Mix that with Jazz and some R&B flavor and you have a talented man that makes wonderful music. His latest CD titled "Dreams" is the type of music you can totally relax to. I personally grabbed a glass of wine and enjoyed the CD in headphones for an awesome experience. He plays flawlessly and it is really a breathe of fresh air.

Jeffrey Slape is a Folk/Rock artist from Georgia who has a new EP called "Cycles".
His acoustic style is so mellow and laid back that he makes the perfect music to just sit in your house and zone out to. His songs are simple with guitar and vocal but they work extremely well.
His style is so laid back the EP almost blends together like one long song. This is a good thing in my opinion because it works. One of my favorites is a song called "For My Father". Any man with a good strong father in his life can relate to this song. His guitar playing is beautiful and flows perfectly with the lyrics.
I actually like that there are no drums in the songs. Another song called "The Reassembling" is again a song others can relate to. Especially if you have been through something rough and you needs to piece your life and your mind back together. It is hard to find good songwriting like this anymore. It makes you look forward to a full length album from him to see what is next.
The CD is well recorded and each song seems a bit short but that is fine.
This type of music is for grown folks. Really mature and easy listening to brighten any day!
You can buy the EP at itunes here!

CD Review: Roget - Pain

Roget has a great sound and this new album "Pain" truly shows it. The title track is a mid-tempo jam with great guitar and drums. Another favorite of mine is "Fly Away". It is such a relaxing song that I can imagine driving down the road with this cranked on a nice Spring day. Roget gives me a Beatles vibe with his music. Which is a great thing to me because I am a huge Beatles fan. He is not a copy of The Beatles, but has a similar style but Roget is unique for sure. I love how his voice is layered on certain parts of the songs.
Another song called "Believe In Your Life" has a "bad ass" sound to it. You for sure need to listen to "Killing Me". See his voice is recorded with what sounds like some type of vocal effect on it which really makes it sound cool. The songs on this album are all good songs. Some stick out more than others but it is an album you could listen to from start to finish and not skip a thing.
The music and lyrics are somewhat easy listening but can get a little rougher at times. The song "Walking Back To Georgia" is an amazing song. Lyrics and music excel here. If you want to see for yourself visit Roget at http://www.reverbnation.com/roget
