Nick Valentini Collective Rides the “Carousel”
The Nick Valentini Collective invites the ComicPop listeners to ride the “Carousel”. This band, as you can tell by the above pic, has many members and they utilize the talents of each to derive their sound. The single “Carousel” to me has four distinct levels to it. The first part of the single gives one a meditative feel with nice soulful harmonies and then it shifts into a more pop sound with an upbeat tempo, next it hits the pinnacle with a maddening beat, to the drop of that goes back to the soulfulness in the beginning of the single. I believe “Carousel” is meant to be an introspective piece for the band and the listener to experience. The music video that the Collective is sharing is very peaceful and beautiful to watch. The band has an album in the works for this Summer, but for now to wet our appetites The Nick Valentini Collective is sharing the music video for “Carousel” through their YouTube channel. This is an interesting sound and I’m looking forward to what else the band will produce – Richard:
Maggie Szabo’s Music Video for “Forgive and Forget”
We featured Maggie Szabo’s single “Forgive and Forget” a while back and now she has released the music video for the single. Maggie’s single is a strong and haunting piece and the video has those tones as well. There are some lighter areas as well when the video shifts to its dancing scenes, which Dancing with the Stars fans will enjoy. For the video Maggie gets to share the screen with Vampire Diaries actor Chris Brochu which several will enjoy as well. A very well crafted video that Maggie is sharing with our listeners through her Vevo YouTube channel – Richard:
Rosie Carney’s Music Video for “Better Man”
Rosie Carney delivers our listeners another soulful song with “Better Man”. Rosie takes a contemplative tone to this single by slowing it down and being purposeful in her diction with her lyrics. The video is well crafted and takes the viewer on a journey that makes you stop and slow down for a while. Many thanks to Rosie Carney for sharing the music video for “Better Man” through her YouTube channel – Richard:
Citabria Wants to “Take My Heart”

Shred Kelly Delivers Another Keeper with “Going Sideways”
Shred Kelly delivers another solid entry into the Folk genre, with “Going Sideways”. Since being introduced to Shred Kelly I have enjoyed their music tremendously. They have a bit of Mumford & Sons vibe to them that I think most people will enjoy. The music video they have made for “Going Sideways” is very well made and very cinematic in style as it follows a downed pilot in the woods. The scenery is beautiful and some of the shoots that are in the video are really unique and makes you wonder the fate of the pilot. The music video is silent for the first few seconds, before the music comes in so don’t think you have to turn your sound up…nothing is wrong. Thanks to Shred Kelly for sharing, with us and our listeners, their music video of “Going Sideways” from their YouTube channel – Richard:
The Dumplings Music Video for “Kocham Byc z Toba”
The Dumplings have released their second music video and want to share it with the ComicPop listeners. Their second video is for the single “Kocham Byc z Toba”. This single and video have a feel to them that conveys the passage of time. Time is a steady flow and can’t be stopped. Ups and downs will happen and everyone has to struggle through them. Check out The Dumplings music video for “Kocham Byc z Toba” from their YouTube channel – Richard:
Shehzad Bhanji’s Music Video for “Never Say Goodbye
Shehzad Bhanji takes our listeners on a journey with his instrument of choice, the electric guitar. Shehzad is sharing with us his music video for his single “Never Say Goodbye”. Shehzad is an instrumentalist that lets his guitar speak in his music. Most of you will recognized this type of music that was popularized by Carlos Santana. Shehzad is carrying on that tradition well. Check out “Never Say Goodbye’s” Music Video from Shehzad Bhanji’s YouTube channel – Richard:
Ex Norwegian’s Delivers “On the Sidelines”
Ex Norwegian is coming out strong with their album Pure Gold. To give you a taste they are giving our listeners a treat with their music video for their single “On the Sidelines”. The single gives the listener a lighter sound, with a fun vibe. “On the Sidelines” has a Rock inspired sound with Pop mixed in. The rhythm is upbeat and ready to get you going. I listened to “On the Sidelines” several times trying to place the sound between Roger and Michelle. Then it hit me. For those that have watched Beck Mongolian Chop Squad, you will get this reference. For those of you that haven’t watched the anime – Go Watch It! It is a great rock story. Anyway back to Roger and Michelle and Beck. In Beck Yukio and Maho sing together and to me it is a similar sound that Roger and Michelle have. Even the beginning of the music video for “On the Sidelines” reminds me a little of the opening of Beck with the big sign. I love the sound that Ex Norwegian has an can’t wait to hear the rest of their album Pure Gold so we can let everyone know what we think about it in a future podcast. Until then have fun with Ex Norwegian’s “On the Sidelines” music video from their YouTube channel – Richard:
