Hey everyone.  The site has been idle for a few days because April, Logan, Luis, and I (Richard) attended the 10 annual Anime Festival Wichita this past weekend and we had a fun time.  We had so much fun that when we got back we came into the studios last night and recorded a two part convention podcast, on all we did and saw.  These podcasts will be up next week after I edit them and package them.

Gladshot’s EP “Maxwell’s Cool Demon”

gladshot

Gladshot is a group that gets it’s style from the late 1960’s. Their music is like a funkedelic type music (mix between funk and psychedelic music). The beats are “trippy” and the lyrics are “wavy”, but understandable, which is difficult for this type of music. A lot of times the lyrics get lost in the mumbling. Gladshot doesn’t do that, one can enjoy the rhythm and the lyrics both. This will be an acquired taste for individuals, but for the style of music they play Gladshot is one to check out. – Richard

We don’t have a sample of Gladshot’s music from their EP Maxwell’s Cool Demon, but if you follow the link it will take you to their website to give them a listen: http://www.gladshot.com/

We will also be featuring them in a podcast review for next month.

The Wiley Ones are Here!

city bird publicitywileyone2

Wiley Ones look like they like to enjoy themselves.  We have been given the opportunity  of listening to their latest single “Thank You New York”.  I have also listened to “Kill it all With Love” .  The band has a simple sound that is refreshing.  They don’t have the strong drums and hard guitar riffs.  It’s more of a blending of folk/pop.  So everyone that enjoys that will likely enjoy The Wiley Ones.

City Bird Publicity has not only given me the chance to listen to The Wiley Ones’, “Thank You New York”, they have given you the same opportunity through SoundCloud.  Give it a listen, I think you will enjoy it – Richard
