Anousheh Releases Latest Single “Bones”

city bird publicityanousheh

Grammy nominated Anousheh has released her latest single “Bones” and she wants our listeners to experience it.  “Bones” comes out of the gate swinging with a banging bass beat that gets your synapsis firing.  The instruments don’t over power Anousheh though she has a strong voice that carries the song through it’s electro/pop sound with ease.  Take a moment and enjoy Anousheh’s “Bones” through SoundCloud – Richard

Surf Vietnam Latest Single “October Baseball”

black-lion-prsurf-vietnam

Surf Vietnam’s latest single “October Baseball”, from their album Funambulism, is a call back to the 1960’s beach music.  The single is also a story driven piece that talks about a dream of playing baseball for the character of the song and him finally taking a chance at it.  Technically the vocals could have been layered more prominently in the single.  The instruments at times overpowered the vocalist, which could have been intentional with the style of music they were going for.  The ending of the song shifts gears on listeners, but it stays within the same decade of music, to a “sock hop” feel.  Since this transition was within the same decade of music styles it didn’t bother me much.  With the World Series just under way “October Baseball” from Surf Vietnam seemed natural so enjoy it through BandCamp – Richard:

Scott Sorry’s Single “Broken Hearts and 45’s”

city bird publicityscott-sorry

Scott Sorry is hitting our listeners between the eyes with his rockin’ single “Broken Hearts and 45’s”.  You can hear the mixture of hard rock and punk right from the start of this single.  Scott’s voice doesn’t take a back set to the vocals though.  He’s right out there in front giving it additional fullness with his vocals.  You can find more of Scott Sorry’s music with his latest album When We Were Kings, but for a bit of a taste from the album Scott Sorry wants you to rock out with his single “Broken Hearts and 45’s” through SoundCloud – Richard:
