Blade of Grass Hits the Ground “Dancing”

cyberpr1blade

Thanks to Brooke of Cyber PR for sharing with us Blade of Grass.  In the single I picked from this duo, “Dance to the Radio” has a sound quality of something that you would hear from The Stray Cats.  This is just one of their many sounds.  These guys are very diverse.  Visit their site at http://bladeofgrassmusic.com/ to listen to other songs and pick up some of there music through your favorite digital download app.  You can listen to “Dance to the Radio” and “Be Here Now” through SoundCloud to get a sampling of Blade of Grass – Richard:

“25” and Counting with Elaine Romanelli

city bird publicityelaine

This single, “25”, has just the right amount of light heartedness and seriousness that it is a winner in my books.  Elaine Romanelli gives us a fun song and music video (below) that gives us a journey through our lives, from where we are at to where we will be in the future.  I love the 29th grade (watch the music video and you’ll understand).  I also love that it is a piano focused single.  We don’t get those much anymore.  It goes to show you how much a piano can do just on it’s own.  Great song!, so be sure to watch “25”(… you will like it!) from her YouTube channel – Richard:
