city bird publicityhead

The Head is sharing with our listeners their music video for their single “Raincoats”.  With “Raincoats” The Head is giving us a taste of their rock music.  This single isn’t a hard rocking single.  It lands in that area that what many would say is popular rock or main stream rock.  The Head have a nice sound that is easy to listen to.  With the video for this single it felt like someone just grabbed a camera and said lets go make a music video to give it that homemade feel to it where the band is just goofing off, which makes it fun.  The Head have a few more tour dates available where you can catch them out if they are in your area.  Here is a sample of their music with the “Raincoats” music video through their YouTube channel – Richard:

Alexis & The Samurai’s Single “Dogs”

cyberpr1alexis2

Alexis & The Samurai are sharing their single, “Dogs”, with our listeners.  This is a very clean acoustical single that has a fun beat to it.  It’s lighthearted and it goes in a variety of directions in tempos.  You have an intermingling with folk and pop.  The folk sound is evident in the verse and the pop really comes through in the chorus.  Then you get to go on a piano journey with them towards the end of the single.  The voices of the duo blend well with their harmonies and they are really fun to listen to. I’m interested in what they will do next, but until then have a fun lighthearted journey with Alexis & The Samurai’s single “Dogs” through SoundCloud – Richard:

Solarrio’s “Drops” Music Video

KoralYoungLogo1solarrio

Solarrio is sharing our listeners his music video for his recently released single “Drops”.  From the outset the listener knows what they are in for, which is right square in the electro/pop genre.  You can tell that Solarrio is doing a call back to the 1980’s with this single.  His voice has that quality to it, that I can’t quite put my finger on, that fits this style of music well.  It’s more than likely being manipulated to a degree, but the way he sings really took me back to those ’80’s days.  Solarrio carries that ’80’s feel into his music video that was done for “Drops”.  Solarrio is looking to drop an EP in 2017 that everyone can keep their eye out for, but until then here is his music video for “Drops” through his YouTube channel – Richard:

Jody Quine Encourages All to “Stand Up”

cyberpr1jody

Jody Quine is letting our listeners have a listen to her latest single “Stand Up”.  “Stand Up” is a powerful single that encourages the listener to “stand up” for themselves and others.  This is a ballad that I believe all can enjoy especially if they pay attention to the lyrics.  “Stand Up” isn’t an overpowering song, but it is a powerful song with a great folk/blues blend for the listener to enjoy.  This single is also the title track from Jody’s Stand Up album so enjoy “Stand Up” through SoundCloud – Richard:

Von Sell’s Single “Names”

city bird publicityvon-sell

Von Sell is sharing with our listeners his single “Names”.  From the beginning of “Names” you know it is a definite electronica/pop sound.  During the middle section of the song it goes into an acoustical sound and then back to the electronica/pop feel.  Von Sell has a nice clear voice that and one of my fears with electroinca music will overpower the singer.  In “Names” Von Sell does blend in with the instruments, but it doesn’t over power his voice.  His self titled EP is available so if “Names” is your groove be sure to check out the digital distributors for Von Sell’s EP.  Until then here is Von Sell’s single “Names” through SoundCloud – Richard:

Scam Avenue’s Music Video for Their Single “Sailor’

city bird publicityscam-avenue

Scam Avenue is sharing with the ComicPop listeners their music video for “Sailor”.  With “Sailor” this band is definitely placing their sound squarely in the New Wave sound of the 1980’s.  The sound is reminiscent to something Human League would produce and for me this is gravy.  Being a child of the ’80’s I eat this music up.  The music video has parts where the vocalists are walking down the street until they meet each other.  However, for me the more unique thing that I enjoy was when the duo was on screen and the instruments were laid over their images…very cool effect.  Scam Avenue’s EP should be available on your digital downloaders.  To give you a taste of their sound here is Scam Avenue’s music video for “Sailor” through their YouTube channel – Richard
